you are so not a therapy failure! everyone heals at their own rate. please do NOT compare your progress with others. we are all different. do not 'compare and despair'.

this is good information. now maybe you can examine why you have such a hard time trusting. i find it's helpful to just deal with where i'm at. so, if i can't trust or do the work then that is what i need to look at rather than trying to force myself to do something i'm obviously not ready to do. it's slowing down to speed up.

Then, towards the end of the session, he commented that my gasps for air from the anxiety lessened - and I told him it must be the klonopin kicking in...He was not happy. He said it was antithetical to what we're trying to do. He said he's not sure the value in doing therapy after taking the medicine.

again this is good info. maybe you can hold off on taking the med until the session is over.

mixed, it takes a lot of time to heal from all the significant wounds you have. you can't rush the process. i know we all want to be healed in a new york minute but it takes time. please be gentle with yourself.
