I Am On My Way

As I sink in the cognitive processing therapy, I feel lousy, I can't stop, but the thought of remembering is upsetting at least. As anyone gotten better with this? Where am I headed? Just questions. Someone please feedback.

It takes a lot of strength to get to where you have gotten. So yes, I think you will get better. The lousy was already there. But walking through it is so much harder than walking around it. But each step takes you one step closer to the other side of it. There, the view is different.

I've been told that this therapy works and that its not "the cure". Rather a process to help one better manage the symptoms. However, like everything it has different affects on people.

I wish you luck.

Thanks Free and Poolguy, will keep the good fight, only have up to look forward to. I must get better, just have to. Thanks.

I don't know if it works or not but I do think you will learn to be able to spot triggers and deal with them.

Maybe just having a game plan helps at least I think it does.

At every step of the process, just trying to do the next assignment brings a strange feelings of not wanting to think about the occurrence, much less writing about it. Now a deadline is approaching, so I will persevere but; I seems to have been thinking about this for so long. I am dragging.

I have been going to CBT for my bipolar and I think I like it but not sure yet. It seems to help hearing others talk about their symptoms and how they deal with them. I still haven't gotten comfortable speaking yet about my issues.
