what if Im as better as i will be

Im wondering and I asked my therapists this many times. What If I am as better as I will ever be? I keep getting better and moving foward but days like today things just show me that I am still a person with PTSD and i feel sad and defeated by an illness,

I don't know what to say except, "I hear you." I can totally relate.

I think I will always have problems, but I don't think they are as severe as they were. I use to think there was a sort of me and them, me having difficulties and them being everyone else that I use to think "normal"..I realise now that everyone struggles in life and I am fortunate that I have had therapy to help me deal with this life.

Hi Minime,

I feel this way sometimes too. T gave a good analogy the other day kind of related to this ...what if you had a physical ailment ....like some kinds of arthritis or a back problem...and to make it feel better, you needed to take medicine & do yoga, stretches, certain dietary things, etc.
Some days it migt hurt more than others...but you would just know that as part of your healing, you need to do these things consistently, those treatments and self-care things.
So if its kinda like that, then therapy will just keep making it better, little at a time and sometimes slowly...but it's okay. You will feel better.

((((minime)))))

I am getting better in ways I never thought I could. Its just that somedays it hits you so hard and you see others out in the world just enjoying it and your so afraid of everything and nothing at the same time.

This can be an unsettling feeling, can't it.

I fear that too. ugh.......
