Day 5045: Needs

You might think that I’m smart enough to define “needs” on my own, but I did search for this definition.

.

In my Coping and Healing groups, I often ask people if they are getting their needs met. We also talk about balancing our needs with other people’s needs.

One of my needs (or wants?) is to find a solution for the annoying clicking noises I hear in my head whenever I speak. According to the nurse I saw yesterday, I need to use a concentrated saline solution twice a day for six months before the leading ENT doctor who specializes in Eustachian tube dysfunction will see me.

One of my needs is to know what medical treaters are really thinking, so I asked the nurse if she thought the doctor would be able to help me.

Sometimes we feel like we need certainty, but sometimes we don’t get it.

I need to prepare for my protest song performance on Tuesday, so I met with my EMDR therapist yesterday. I realized I needed a good answer to the question “Who do you think you are?”

Here’s the answer I need:

(Hands on hips) “I’m Ann Koplow, the Singing Therapist!”

Do you see needs in my images for today?

.

Here’s what I find when I look for needs on YouTube.

Finally, I need to thank everyone who is reading this daily blog, including YOU!

One thought on “Day 5045: Needs”

  1. In an old sci-fi series, there was a general store they christened the “Need/Want.” I need to start wearing my new “ears” more often so that my brain (according to the directions) adjusts to them. I want them to fit more comfortably without feedback or making my ears itch.
