I worked myself to the bone for many years. Achieved "success."
And then, there came a day when I could do this no longer and I got help.
Initially, I did this because I was in a relationship that was broken, but as I pulled the layers off, I saw.....ME.
So...therapy was the answer. that, and yoga, horses, friends, nature, dogs, friends, and more therapy.
But initially, I suppressed it, and worked. I still over-work from time to time, but not as much, and I have a feeling that I will be in and out of therapy for the rest of my life.
Yes, this thread makes me sad. But it's better than being NUMB...at least most of the time!
