Squiggle, i am at a similar place- a very similar place. I don't have any answers, just wanted you to know that you are not alone. It's so unfamiliar, it can be an overwhelming place to be.

But for me, I know that since my therapist got me to this place, she can help me move through it.

Happiness cannot be found
through great effort and willpower,
but is already present,
in open relaxation and letting go.

Don't strain yourself,
there is nothing to do or undo.
Whatever momentarily arises
in the body-mind
Has no real importance at all,
has little reality whatsoever.

Don't believe in the reality
of good and bad experiences;
they are today's ephemeral weather,
like rainbows in the sky.
