It's a hard old climb but the view in the brief times the cloud cover clears, or the fresh bracing air, or the exhilaration of pulling self up that pass - it's all good isn't it?

At the moment I'm in a cravasse, having fallen through what I thought was solid ice, therapist is up top peering over the lip, urging me to grab hold of the rope and pull my self up, she's pulling on the rope too but I need to do my part. And it seems easier to lie here in the cold icy pit looking up at the unreachable sun.

Am also avoiding my feelings by waxing lyrical 🙄🙄 hugs
Thanks Waterloo, I love the way you've envisaged the metaphor. Yeah I guess I probably don't want the train back down again. I've been at the bottom of this mountain and I came to therapy. I don't want to see the bottom again. There really are some good, heartening parts to this process, but it's hard to think of those when you are in the crevasse and exhausted.
