I'd like to achieve more in my life than what I have.
I think I am not alone in this.
Part of what I am learning is that - the "if only you tried hard enough" attitude is what helped make me sick. I pushed myself so hard 'I broke.'
I am wanting to get more out of life, but I am realizing it's real essential for folks like us to be careful with ourselves.
I feel like I come up against that wall of having a limited life (I kick the wall, I yell at it) but I have to respect that at this time I need to be healthy more than anything.
Peace,
Mark

I had high hopes for myself growing up. Now I know they were just lofty dreams that will never be attained. I am my worst enemy telling myself over and over what a failure I am at life. But that is, like you said, kicking the wall...you don't get anywhere. As I accept more of myself through therapy. Accept my limitations I am not so hard on myself. But it took a loooong time. And I still regress to struggle with it.

Sounds like you just need to get out of your comfit zone that you created to get stable. Might be an idea to just choose just one thing that you always wanted to do but put off because of fear of getting sick or other reasons and make that your special project. Growth comes from pushing yourself outside of your comfit zone sometimes. Just take your time with it there is no race.

Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
