And the bad news?
That means you're doing it right!
This isn't a linear process, CS. It's gonna be much more like one of those dances where you take a couple of steps this way, then a step or two back. And there will be a few spins in it, too... But you're DOING IT, and this is one of those places in life where that really IS the only success. Think about it -- the only time anyone can say you have successfully perfected yourself is when you're dead. Doesn't do you any good then, does it? Wouldn't you rather be OK, or Good Enough while you're alive, rather than having people say, "She successfully completed therapy and the self-work she needed" after you're gone?
And CS? You really are good enough, and if it matters -- some of us wouldn't trade you for any other Canadian.
