xxSRMxx Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Today I had my first proper appt with my new therapist. I explained to him about everything that had happened with my boyfriend, I also spoke to him about my negative self image, negative thoughts and anger issues. (these had ultimately ended my relationship) due to bereavements ive suffered. We spoke for an hour about everything and what we plan to do, work on, what route to go, He said I was very very open with him from the start and that its a good thing! I cried, and i also laughed at one stage. He described my mind has like a see saw and that the negativity was weighing me down etc. Anyway, My next appt is monday afternoon...Im going back to work tommorow and i ate some noodles when I got home..a good friend also rang me and told me about shes just found out the guy she was seeing has got back with his ex, shes devastated. we then kind of egged each other on on the phone saying ''we are intelligent beautiful young females who will overcome this and go shopping next week!'' lol. Sure, my heart breaks and i know i will be going to dark places sometimes, but no contact with my ex right now is VITAL. right now its all about me! whatever will be concerning my ex is put away in a box. but for once in my life, hes not come first. Ive put myself first and after some treatment and general distractions I think i might be okay......touchwood. Link to post Share on other sites

ItsJustTheWayItIs Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 XX...good for you!! It's refreshing to read that someone is doing something positive to move on. We don't have to be stuck in the 'woe is me' phase forever. It hurts, you feel it and then you do something about it. I still have my moments, but like you I have decided to heal and move forward. I'm soooo proud of you. Keep it up!! Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Scorpio Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It is all downhill from here. You've hit rock bottom, which means you have a good, solid foundation to build upon. But don't build a wall. Just place one brick as perfectly as a brick can be placed. One day at a time. Link to post Share on other sites
