Gosh, we were talking about this last night.
Fear of getting better can be a huge fear, of the seemingly insurmountable gap between here and 'there', and most importantly the challenges we face as we move closer to 'there'.
Oh, how many of my therapy dreams are about gaps, valleys, being stranded on one side and needing and wanting to be on the other.
I get overwhelmed often because I can't see incrementally. I am here, and I want to be there and holy toledo how am I going to get through and survive that gap?!
T can see incrementally and more importantly, knows that I can't. Nice yin/yang
