Personally, the cumulative ongoing outcome of my work in psychodynamic based therapy is enabling me to start making steps out and about. Slowly but surely. But this is some years down the line, and I've still some ways to go. And I see my therapist 3 times a week. And I'm still working. So my situation's slightly different. I also see my GP once a fortnight, and she does 'booster'/reassurance stuff with me. Plus the support from Disabilities Coordinator and my designated support type manager at work - counts for a lot in taking slow steady steps forwards.
Hmm.
There's then this other option not already discussed here -
- be patient, hard though it is, and trust that the shifts will come in their own time.
My and my therapist's perspective on psychodynamic therapy is that it's about relationships - with yourself, with others, with the past-in-your-head. Working through this and building something steady inside does take time.
