Which of the 4 traits of Cluster D are you affected by? It sounds like you've been diagnosed, I'm hoping by a Pdoc, do you not still see that Pdoc for treatment?

It sounds like you have a plan for therapy. The 28th will be here before you know it. Relief is on the way. In the meantime, I encourage you to hold on to hope, because there's a light on the other side of this. There are times where I've found myself depressed and at other times living in another reality. I've learned that's what I do when I'm stressed. But the root of that depression and reality comes from me running from the root of that stress...whether it was an argument, or good stress, like remembering new experiences. I've learned to stay present by addressing these issues right away so it doesn't develop into poor coping mechanisms. Know that you're not alone and I'll be praying you through to a healing breakthrough.
