yes.. in some areas. years ago i had no job and no good job history references. i was a hardcore drug addict. i was refusing meds all the time and couldnt care for myself (clean my living space, take showers, buy food). i was in a constant crisis mode. ive been seeing my current T for 6 years. now i have a job that ive held for 2.5 years and even got promoted in, my house and car is always clean, i can pay bills, i shower every day and take my meds every day. also, when i met my T i was very closed off and guarded. it took me a long time to let him in.

the areas which still need improvement are coping with eating disorder behaviors.. building up a social network (i isolate myself pretty mch all the time unless im at work). while i have really opened up to my T and am comfortable telling him my emotions and being vulnerable around him, i still need to carry that over into my peers/family.
