Thanks for this!
I am holding out for that "better state of mind someday". That is the ultimate goal I guess. From what I understand about psychoanalytic therapy it is normal to feel worse for a short period when letting down your defenses and feeling vulnerable so hopefully this just a rough patch that will pass soon.
