I've been in flashback mode lately too.

I think it's important to remember we aren't doing anything WRONG. We're not saying "hey, I want to get out of the present and get lost in the past". It's not a choice, and it sucks.

So. I think that trying mindfulness is great...it's good to have a tool to use to try to pull ourselves back to the present. But learning ANYTHING takes practice. AND nothing is guaranteed to work every time, no matter how much we've practiced it. So maybe sometimes it will work and you'll move on, and other times it won't work, and you'll call T (I love what she said to you about calling her!).

NO ONE expects us to be perfect except ourselves. You are working hard, and you are doing the best you can. That's ALL anyone can expect of you.

Lots of to you!
