Aww Jammer, sorry you had a bad homecomming.
My T says it to me like this, well actually she draws it, but can't do it here...
So, if you think of a staight horizontal line, then imagine a sine wave type thing. A wavy line that goes up and down thru the baseline. Well, I used to have big waves emotionally, mostly below the baseline(depression) and it would take longer to get back to baseline(just feeling fine). So the waves were long and deep. When I am all emotionally labile(up and down) then the waves are shorter and all up and down all over.
So with therapy, my waves don't verty often go down as low as they used to, and certainly not for as long. I spend less time and less distance away from baseline.
Dang! I wish I could DRAW this! Its hard to explain with words...
So anyways. The jist of all this is, that yes T has been hard. T has been very confusing. T is bugging me right now too, bout the 'real' stuff. But despite that....it IS working....so I gonna keep at it. Cuz damn but it does feel a whole lot better sticking nearer to that baseline.
And I am kinda dense! So if this kid can do it, others proly can too. Just takes time I guess.
I talk like such a knowitall.....I know sh*t all really, but this is stuff thats been good for me, so I share it.
Take care Jammer.
