I love my counselor...
| Fri, 10-21-2005 - 3:51am |
Some of you might know that I go to therapy. I actually got out of the house for 2 whole days. I went to counseling, group, my mom's house and then out to dinner to cellabrate Sheila's knew job.
I also went to visit my Dad and sister last weekend.
My counselor took me to the park outside for my last session to get me out and work through this thing I have about being afraid outside and in open places etc.
The time before this she came to our house for my session since I have had a real problem getting out lately.
Well that sort of made me feel like I really needed to try harder to go to her.
She really does a great job!! Sheila and I just love her to bits. She really knows her stuff.
I am assigned to go out two more days before my next session on Wednesday.
I have inproved some of my obsessive compulsive behaviors also.
Just these little things have a way of making me feel more free.
It actually felt good to be out and about, even though I did catch myself looking over my shoulders alot. Lol.
You never know when the boogy man is lurking about, lol.
I just want this all to get better. I wish I could use a remote control to fast forward everything. But for now I will take what I can get in the way of healing and making improvements!
Well I feel like I have made progress and have had a positive week.
I even drove myself to couseling and group. Sometimes I just seem to have the need to hide in my house and not take phone calls, visits etc. It is just to exhausting to be on alert all the time. I am learning more about it all the time.
I guess the details would be better left for my blog.
Ok, I will stop rambling here.
Thank you counselor!!!

I know how the blues/depression can pull you down..I get like that and just want to curl up in the bed in the dark..
I know ~S~ and I have much still to get past although she seems okay with everything I know I still hold deep anger and pain about what went on and although I got answers,I don't feel still like I got real answers, just skimmmed ones.. I would like to have a
C >^. A .
I sure hope things get back to normal for you and ~S~ soon. You always seem to pull yourself back up when things are down.
Sheila has been the best and I am very grateful that I have her. She has been home over two weeks now and it has been the best thing for both of us.

I'm so glad you are doing this, Laurie! Your counselor sounds a lot like mine...she asks good questions.
It always means progress. We trust her completely and that is also important. I do things she suggests and they have positive effects on me. Again, progress which gives me more hope of getting a handle on my issues.
