Hello Sorry Shaped. This is a wonderful thread and I thank you for asking if others are getting better. I myself am getting better, slowly with work, over time. If I compared myself day to day or even week to week, I would feel as though I am not improving. But when I compare to 5, 10, 15, or 20 years ago I am ideeed much better. More work to do of course!
I don't know if that helps you. Feel free to PM me any time of you'd like to discuss further or would just like a hug or empathy. And please know that I remember what hell feels like and have been there more than once...you have my empathy...you are not alone. I understand very well what you mean by "alive but not living."
Thank you for the beautiful poem!
Peace and hope to you.
