((((( Tree )))))

I am so thankful that you are you....and that your T is so wonderful, to take things at your pace. I can relate to your awful feelings - and that shell. YES!! Being one way on the outside, storing all the awfulness within....judging myself and then getting angry for judging myself, and then judging myself again....blech.

You have accomplished so much. And you know what it feels like to be on the other side with certain things...Try to give yourself the space, time, care, compassion that you need. Easier said than done, I know....((( HUGS )))
