(((((((((((((((hug))))))))))))))) Now canders you KNEW posting like this would require me to come back on and post! And I hope what I say helps

You are catastrophizing. If you can, go read up on the basic cognitive distortions and pick your post apart using them (((Hug))) I'm sorry you are feeling so low and miserable, hon.

If you can't do the CBC cognitive distortions, then maybe go into Dr Ladd's Sharing Self Help Ideas and post some things there?

If you aren't up to doing any of that, then you are stuck with me here in this thread.

Just because you had a tough week does not mean you are an idiot or deserving of hurt.

Comparing our own journey with another's doesn't cut it with me. We are all on the same path, some of us are ahead, some are behind you... no one is better than the other. Just like in school, some are in second grade, some are in high school, no one is better than the other, just at a different spot on the path!!!



Now, tell me some of the self-care things you do for yourself that have worked some in the past for you... and let's see if we can get you more centered?
