Journey again

BastSenior Contributor

Journey again

I now have a new journey, although my life is so lost again in the demands of working therapeutically with others. I am so succesful well beyond my earlier self belief & fear. My life saving boundaries are at risk - my private practice has become overwhelming & I am scared for my own mental health. My much loved psychcologist of 5 years died on 11/1/2019, irrepaceable. I have retreated into complete denial - no problem, no issues. Emotional eruptions are unnaceptable. Just keep on going, shut doen the concerns that there is really no purpose, no reason & plod on forever.

Maybe there is more

Re: Journey again

Thanks for such a vulnerable sharing with us @Bast, it's great that you've risen above your earlier self belief, but it must be scary as well to feel like it might be all too much. Have you been looking for someone you feel safe with, like you did with your loved psychologist? Sending you love, we really hope you're doing something daily to show yourself love and care
