You know, six months isn't very long to give yourself to heal. Healing is a big job.

I wonder if maybe you are moving too quickly in therapy because you have this time limit in your mind? I think it probably took me a full six months before I could even start getting really deep into the trauma stuff. And even with that, we've only touched on it. And yes, it does give me physical symptoms. It's hard, hard, hard stuff. I talk to T on the phone, and we work on containment....but sometimes, it's just almost too much.

I have had a few glimmers of HOPE since starting therapy, though - and I am hanging on to those. I do think that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I just think we have to give ourselves time to get through the tunnel, and get through safely.
