I saw my therapist today...
We talked about identifying triggers.
Unfortunately, I've identified one and that's these forums. Really, very sad.
As a lot of you may know, I'm a mental health nurse. I'm use to helping people, it's like breathing for me.
I learned that I need to accept the fact that I'm not the nurse, I am infact the "patient." I"m really struggling to separate the two.
This is why these forums are such a trigger for me. I get too emotionally involved. I wish I could help each and every one of you, and well I guess, I should be taking care of myself first.
I've deleted my acct. It will take a few days for it to go through.
I wanted to just say this...
I have learned more from all of you about this disorder and the effects it has on all of us, than I could ever have learned in a textbook.
We are a rare breed with a tremendous amount of courage. We fight the fight everyday. KEEP FIGHTING!!!
I sincerely wish nothing but the best for every one of you. Some stories just broke my heart.
Keep going...ya gotta keep pushing forward, one step at a time.
Good luck, God bless
Hugs to you all.
Plzsti
