I have been out of hospital for almost 2 months going to PDOC every 6 weeks. Going to therapist every week and group therapy once a week.I am sick of talking about my self I feel like I hit a wall. I know there are issues I must deal with but I am tired. I guess it must be hitting a nerve cause I just want to quit everything and be done. I have been feeling better on meds. Sleeping 4-6 hours a night. Mood is not a flat that has been it has been no emotion. Am I fighting the process?

She was right. I don't know why or how it happens but if you feel like you're not getting anywhere STICK TO IT. You'll find that there is something troubling you that you were not aware of.

For what it's worth Cheryl I agree...Therapy is a through pain in the ass but it's the fastest way that I know of to get to the other side of the junk that gets in the way of being happy!

Stick to it and speak up, write in a journal and look at what you are saying! I agree with Dobie it's always darkest before the dawn!

    You may recall I write that my sister and he husband were in an affair with my brothers wife. It's been almost a year. Mom last week asked me to invite my sisters boys to a birthday at my house for my brothers daughter. I was on my way to pick up the boys when my mom called and told me to turn around. Apparently my brother didn't know my nephews were coming and he was livid. I came home to a...
