Being almost devastated is horrible because it lingers. But total devastation brings a kind of peace. It lets you give up.

I may try it. I've just quit theropy, cause I wasn't comfortable talking with her, and we've not gotten anyone else, and I think we won't be getting anyone...so i'm on my own.
But would anyone want to do it with me? I don't want to do it alone? Could we buddy up and discuss how things work with us, and things we don't understand and stuff? I'd love to not be alone. Anyone interested in joining me PM me please?

thanks for posting *goes to look*
scars are tattoos with better stories
it's hard to answer the question whats wrong, when nothing is 'right'
Not all scars show. Not all wounds heal. Sometimes you cant always see the pain someone feels

Thanx I'll find it very useful

I've already posted a thanks..
But I'd like to post an extra thanks, as I've just finished doing CBT with my T. When I first met him, he explained what it was, etc, and it sounded useful. When we got started, I really didn't like him, so made hardly any progress.
Thanks again for posting, I hope online will work better for me!!
Take care,
Annie.
