Sky,
Thank you for responding. I understand the need to add things slowly, but I tend to berate myself for the things I haven't done, rather than congratulate myself on the things I have. Like today. I went for a therapy session, I had lunch with my dad and step-mom and I walked home (30 mins,) but I can't help but think that I didn't do anything to look for a job, I didn't call the university, I didn't call my family doctor, I didn't call the woman I want to be a friend, and I didn't do my laundry. I feel like what I did wasn't enough. I wish I could just be happy with what I did do.
Laura
