insecure and emotional
 
I'm mainly looking to be 'noticed' and for some understanding/empathy here, please. And some hugs. :)

I started back at therapy yesterday. To my immense relief.

It was a tough 3 week break. Very tough.

It's taking a while for me to settle back into myself. I feel like I'm emerging from a fog, from an alternate reality.

This morning I feel very insecure, I think it's my child state, finding, creating something to pin my/her anxiety on to.
This makes me feel sad.

I feel a tender ache in my heart, the centre of my chest.

Along with all this, nearly a week ago my homeopath affirmed my multiple personalities. The 3 of me. He understands how I lose myself, that the me that goes to work is very different from the me-s that come forefront when I'm in distress. The child state, and the abusive protector state, Katrina.
That he takes this seriously is something really big for me.
I feel I can breathe more easily, I can be myself/ves with him now. It's safer.

I am so glad that things are looking up for you in terms of therapy and your homeopath.

I think that you should let your emotions out, as from my experience if I hide my emotions, it all comes out in a huge burst later.

Katie, I want to echo what Oly said. I'm glad things are looking up for you. Well done for getting through the break hun.

*sits with*

im glad you started back with therapy, and im glad your homeopath person was validating and recognized all 3 of you :)

It's good to know you're getting somewhere. I'm still very lost in my alternate reality.

Hope everything goes up from here!

*hugs* don't have much to say but wanted to let you know you are noticed and cared about.

Hey Katie,

I'm glad you've started back with therapy, I can relate to the huge relief it is after a break.

I can relate to the coming out of a fog, back into reality, or a 'clearer' reality if that makes sense.
How does it feel? Coming back to yourself? Is it frightening, a relief, or just an adjustment?

I hope you are ok, and I'm really glad you got the validation from your homeopath, that is a really great step, awesome :)

I'm sending you hugs and you are very much noticed around here and by us :) thinking of you Katie (and Trini and Katrina!!)
Take care

Ash

Thank you. :)

I'll reply properly later.

ThinkingofRecovery 13-01-2010 08:57 PM

How are you doing this evening Katie?

Stellata 13-01-2010 09:05 PM

I'm much steadier. Was much more together in today's session. Starting to allow tender feeling again, thawing out.

I'm coming back to myself, but a new, more different me. It's hard to describe. More whole?

risenfromperdition 13-01-2010 09:07 PM

I'm glad you were more together in the session today :)

thinking of you

Glad to hear that you made that step with the homeopath and that he is showing you such understanding and validation just as you deserve.

im glad things are helping :-)

nowhereman 15-01-2010 05:41 PM

I notice you. I'm so glad things are getting better for you with therapy. We all get insecure and emotional so remember you're not alone when those feelings come.

Scarletdreamer 15-01-2010 09:56 PM

Katie, I'm glad that you've gotten back to therapy... I understand how difficult the weeks without it can be. I'm also very glad that your homeopath validated your states... that's awesome. *gentle hugs*

Thinking of you, love. If you need to talk, I'm here. xx

Steel Maiden 21-01-2010 09:24 AM

How are you Katie?

Stellata 21-01-2010 09:38 AM

I'm tired, but feeling stronger than I did earlier in the week.
Thanks for asking, Oly.

Steel Maiden 21-01-2010 10:06 PM

Perhaps you should have a long sleep tonight? I am so glad you're feeling a bit stronger though, keep it up.
I care about you.
