Maybe just take one little piece of your issues and work on that until you get some clarity or breakthrough. Then stop and allow yourself to really feel good about your progress no matter how small. This will give you the energy to tackle another piece when you are ready.

That's good advice, thank you. It is all soooooo overwhelming. I don't even know where to start, lol. My therapist is going to try me with EMDR once she has an opening, but.... what it seems like is the VA (I'm a veteran) is all about treating the appearance of the symptoms. Learn how to act like other people, basically. Not - learn why you feel the way you feel, and what's causing your different issues, and then pick out a thread and start untangling.... Nope. They're more like, 'if you wash the thread multiple times, it'll become a firm mass, which you can wrap around your foot, and call a sock.'
