On a Every two-weeks Schedule...

So, I am still making progress. Granted I wish I was completely "cured", I am getting a grip on my feelings and thankfully I have been sharing what is recommended with my husband, who holds me accountable for my missteps...

My missteps are simple avoidable ones, but I am trying to undo a lifetime of damage... I have trouble with those dang "boundaries". I lend my ear too long sometimes, I worry about too much after these long "listening sessions" and I have that problem saying "no".... so, when I complain, J says, you were on the phone way too long, or why do you now have this new task, etc... it's funny when he reminds me, but frustrating that I let it happen.

I am still worried about my grandma, and am working toward letting my fear go. I am trying to tell myself, that "she is 90, she has had a great life, and that when it is her time, it's ok, to be sad, but she will be better and whole in heaven and I can't cure her and keep her forever, or control her health, but I can control my mind and how I deal with things".

I go back tomorrow and will report my latest progress, because I do believe I am making small strides...

Still Making Progress

So, I have been a little off my schedule, but I am still working on getting my mind in order. I saw my therapist again that would be three weeks in a row and this time felt like I didn't need as much time as usual. The other two sessions, I felt like I was being rushed, but this last time I felt like I was rushing her. Haha! I am still working on setting boundaries and following through. Here's to small steps toward a stronger me!
