Oh, you will find it intensely uncomfortable. No doubt about that. It will make you want to crawl out of your skin as every dysfunctional but familiar instinct you have is trodden upon. This is how I experienced it. However, if I took it a little bit at a time and TRUSTED that I needed to surrender to the support and vulnerability in order to heal, I found that it worked. I cannot stress enough how uncomfortable this was for me. I had to sacrifice my autonomy and trust someone else's direction because it had become apparent to me that doing what I thought was best led to misery and laying in bed for days imagining how I could brutalize myself--clearly not the result I wanted.
Thanks for this!
