I had a good appointment with my therapist. She said I’ve been making a lot of progress especially in the last year. I’ve had less severe symptoms, and I’ve been taking my meds more regularly, I’m volunteering every week, working on getting my permit so I can get a license and become a peer specialist, and going back to college in January. Often I compare myself to others achievements and feel like I’ve made zero progress and it affects my self esteem very negatively. She emailed me a scanned chapter from a cbt work book about self esteem so I’m gonna read that tonight.
She said my progress specifically this past year is very noticeable. I’m happy to hear that, I feel like I haven’t noticed it maybe. I just need to work on my self esteem so I can believe it.
