So you’ve progressed in some particular area. How do you handle that progress?
i feel like it’s one step forward, one step back. maybe ten steps forward, nine steps back….
at the time of the meeting, things seemed to be improving, and then there was a big crash. so i guess the positive side is that i’m no longer having to cope with the progress.
I’m afraid of progress in some ways, because I’m afraid it means I’ll lose something. Maybe I’m afraid I’ll lose my therapist. Or afraid I’ll lose something about myself.
yeah, definitely afraid of progress. it’s hard for me to realize that all of the things that will be expected of me if i’m not overwhelmed with fibro and DID will be so much easier to do if i’m not overwhelmed with fibro and DID. so it’s scary to think of getting better, because it’s so hard to picture anything except having to do more. i can’t fully imagine what it would be like to actually feel better….
