Day 25, Saturday: Something someone told you about yourself that you'll never forget (good or bad)
"You're more exceptional in every way than you know." So said my shrink at the end of our last session. I heard her. Now I'm trying to feel it.
It's been two months since I've had therapy. It's been a tough two months but I'm getting through. I have her number and I can call her any time. That's a comfort.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
I've been weird about my last therapy session, too. I know I can call if I need to but knowing that my therapist thinks I'm strong enough on my own gives me strength.
ReplyDeleteJust knowing that your therapist is there if you need her could be all the security you need to keep pushing on. You're doing a great job!
