Well, I am now more grounded. It was difficult to see T Friday after that long break. But made it through just fine. Thank you all for your wonderful support. I could not have made it without you!


Yesterday I wrote my T and requested a short reply - dealing with my recovery. T wrote me back and gave me what I needed.

I have learned that even when I don't understand the therapy process, it is worth my investment in time and money to have access to this tool of healing. And it is worth it to just keep being very honest about stuff with T. It is difficult to do at times, but it is worth the energy.

I may be off PC for a bit the next month. There is a lot going on in my work and my own healing. I feel it is a time for me to just turn inward and focus on being able to nurish myself in a healthy way. But I did not want anyone of you very awesome people to worry about me or where I went. I will be sporadically checking on you guys and you may see just a THANKS meaning I read your post and am happy for you. But I think this is what I need at this point in my recovery.

Tons of big hugs to you all!!
Thanks for this!

So, WePow, I know we all have issues--that's why we're here, but you always sound SO together to me, like you totally have your head on straight. I really admire you.

Anyway, just wanted to say that. Good luck on your work in the coming weeks!

Oh yes, I will be back to normal posting support in no time. I am just retreating into a more silent mode as I process through some of this very heavy innermost trauma that is the root cause of my addiction. Not fun at all. But it leaves me inverted. And I didn't want anyone to worry about me.

OK- good! I hope you'll be ok while you're gone and that you can work through all of this quickly for your sake. I will miss you and be thinking about you while you're gone. (((((((((((((((WePow))))))))))))))
