Right now, yes, the overwhelmed is getting stronger...mostly because I can't stop thinking about it and can't seem to allow the emotions to hang around long enough to work through them. If I could let myself cry or scream or express some kind of emotion, it might fade...but I keep distancing from the emotions. I know T would help me stay with them and deal with them.

Yeah - I'm working on coping strategies. T offered a few ideas, I've done those. I know other things to try...it's just that I feel like I'm constantly trying to cope and as soon as I stop the overwhelmed feeling comes back.

Expense - I pay completely out of pocket, so it would be another session to pay for. Not cheap, but I could make it work if I need to.
