Hi here today -
I’m still on what I consider to be a positive track!
At the moment, healing work to me means letting go of the anger I feel towards both my therapist and therapy in general. I think it’s easy to stay ‘stuck’ in a cycle of replaying what hurt me and remaining in ‘victim limbo’. I’m trying to assume more self-agency, accept responsibility for my own feelings, and re-direct energy towards things that add to my life vs depleat it. I’m planning to take a break from the boards since it’s adding fuel to the fire.
In terms of the rest of my life, things are going well. I don’t consider myself depressed, nor I am seeking help from anyone including other therapists. That’s huge progress since I spent so long dependent on the system and wasting money and time on a destructive path to nowhere.
Self-care has been key to keeping sane. I eat well, exercise, sleep 8 hours a night, keep engaged in social activities and journal. I now have a deep understanding that the only person who will take care of me is me.
Hope all is well with you!
