My Therapist Thinks This Is Huge

[Gs172003]

I mentioned this elsewhere but...

Until her and here...tomorrow, in my mind, didn't exist. There was no such thing as planning for next weekend if this one didn't go well or for tomorrow if today sucked because well. .. I never expected to see it. That has changed. She thinks it's because I'm no longer in crises mode. I can now have things not go my way and not have a tantrum about it lol because it may never happen again. I'm feeling safer now and part of it is because of you all.

Thanks.

I really connect with this. Sometimes I measure how well I'm doing by how far into the future I can imagine/plan.

Hurray for foresight and hope!

Is it normal to be afraid to say it?

As in "I'll undo it?"

Well. That didn't last long. Back to the drawing board

Zoogal, you had the experience... no negating that. It didn't abide, but that's what practice, patience, persistence, and perseverance are for? It is still a breakthrough, no discounting that. You got there and that's significant. Now you need to turn you mind to how, what or why you got there (if only briefly) so that you can endeavor to repeat those things that were successful?

It is normal for me to be afraid to say these things, and it is normal for them to come and go. Usually it is months after I first have an insight that I feel or believe that insight with any consistency.

I'm not sure how. That's what's frustrating. I know how it went backwards but not how it changed to begin with.

Well, you know it /can/ go forward though.

Even unexpectedly. :)

So keep doing the therapy/healing work you're doing, and wait for it?
