EXACTLY!!! Perfect description.

BUT THEN, there are the good days. But, does anyone else feel (on the good days) like there's something missing (i.e. worrying about everything). I think JYL mentioned something similar in a post.


It's like waiting for the other shoe to drop.(cliche of my own lol) I'm always thinking "this can't really be happening. It's not possible for me to have a good day....what's wrong? Something MUST be wrong. Bad....I know but it's not easy to stop thinking this way.

That's what I'd like. Just to have it all written down and pass it out and then start the therapy. Explaining it again and again, in different ways to different people. It's what makes the therapist shopping such a chore. Then, when I do find one I like and start feeling better, those thoughts of "this can't be" come up again and I end up sabotaging the therapy experience and come up with some excuse not to continue.

It is quite complicated, isn't it.
Here's to simplicity, somehow, sometime.
