It's so difficult to put a time limit on recovery. My T wasn't supposed to see me past 6 weeks! How can anyone accomplish anything in 6 weeks? It's been a year and I'm finally seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, so maybe in another year I'll be ok. At least after that (and if he's still with the same clinic) I can have check ins.

And "pushing" yourself to get well just doesn't work especially with PTSD, because you never know when something will trigger another memory. It sucks! It's true, things get worse before they get better. I'll attest to that.
