You're so sweet to say that, Wiki!

Sannah, it seems too simple! I know it's more than my mother's anxiety but it is true that my T makes me feel secure. It has a lot to do with my recent trip too. I did something for myself and it turned out to be what I needed.

But maybe it really is progress, rainbow, and you could allow yourself to enjoy that possibility?!
Yes, I'm enjoying the progress for now. I do feel lighter, maybe not so powerless as before. I don't think it's from the EMDR but from my trip. Whatever it is, I'm enjoying the calm and hoping I can cope when it changes. I'm not naive; I know it will change.
Thanks for this!
