It's been really hard lately. Depression coming back. Starting not to sleep again. I went back to therapy. I had my first session last week in a year and a half. with a new therapist. I've never really worked through it. And I'm pretty sure I've been avoiding trying to work through it because I don't want to deal with these feelings and put them in my concious mind to think about. I know that in the long run it will benefit me more to get all of this out but right now I just want to hide and push the thoughts back down and never have to deal with them again. I work at a college in Residence Life and in my position, I'm dealing with a trigger every week. Because I'm dealing with these triggers, it's probably best to really work at trying to work through this. Logically it all makes sense and I know what I should do.
But emotionally...I'm just done with trying. |

I hope your "logic" will convince your emotional self to get back into working on things.. ie--therapy.
Depression can be so draining and speaks with such a loud voice-- it wants us to stay stuck-- I hope you can show it that you're NOT going to pay attention to it. ![]() best to you in your struggle ![]() fins
