((((((Granite)))))) You are a unique gift to our world. There is only one you.
You can not fail at that! There will never be another YOU. And I know I am not the only one who thinks you are a very wonderful YOU. So you did fail just now... at convincing me that you are a failure :-) Because you are NOT! |

Oh, granite. You're SO not a failure. You help me so much by building up my spirit. Anyone who does that for me is NOT a failure. Even if your session wasn't so productive (I assume that's what this is about) that doesn't relect on YOU being a failure.

Hi Granite
every session is completely different. Please be patient with yourself. You are still there, still caring to make it work, that is SUCCESS.

What SAWE said is so true: every session is different from the next. What's important is we keep showing up. You are doing it.

For me doing the mindfulness thing is VERY HARD! I just don't have the attention span it needs to be successful and I feel like I'm just not intune enough to really understand what it is I need to be mindful of. I often read others posts and feel so frustrated that I am not, after 2 years now in therapy, anywhere near where they seem to be. Some seem to have such a deep understanding of what has happened in their lives and have started to unravel it.... and I can hardly remember a thing, let alone begin to come up with an intellectual understanding of why I am what I am. Honestly, it's just recently that I started telling T anything- it's just so, so hard for me to do.
You're not a failure at all granite. You are, to me, a success because you tried and will contnue to try. I admire you and look up to you for your strength and courage to do what you know will be helpful for you. ((((((((((granite)))))))))) |

Maybe you didn't fail it at all. If you are really mindful when you don't feel good you end up really feeling those bad feelings and it does feel bad.
