I know from reading other threads that texting my T and not getting an answer is just one of the most painful things.

On Friday, I texted my T for extra support-a painful anniversary is coming up and I've been having a bit of a hard time. With food (I'm in recovery from anorexia and bulimia) and with anxiety. I didn't get an answer, which is SO unlike her. My brain instantly went to "omg something bad happened to her" and/or "omg she's mad at me."

And then something magical happened. All of the DBT, the meditation, the yoga, and yes THE FREAKING THERAPY kicked in and I found myself thinking "chill out. She probably just got busy and forgot. Our relationship is ok. She is most likely ok. I'm a little hurt, and I will talk to her in session Monday." And I did. And it was just as I thought.

Whoa. Therapy working? Could it be? Six months, a year a go I would be having a meltdown. Two years ago I might have been slightly suicidal and ready to quit. And now I'm fine. And we're fine.

Cool stuff.
