Back again for another update! Today I completed day 3/5 of the protocol. To be honest, I can't be sure if the agent of change is a new medication or the SSP but something is working well for me. I finished the third listening session before getting ready for the day. I found myself able and happy to talk to people WAY more than I usually am. It was honestly one of the best feeling days I've had. I was able to talk freely in conversations without really thinking about it, when usually everything I say (to people I'm not super comfortable with) is premeditated, forced and makes me anxious.

Again, I don't know what the factor is that made me so much more engaged today, but its totally possible the SSP was helpful.
