Reasons for not wanting to get better
Hi everyone
i am being very true, open and honest here with this post. i don't want anyone to 'tell me off' or 'give me a hard time' becasue i know. I know what i should be doing to get better but i am stuck. i feel stuck becasue fear is my no 1 challenge.
i know the heading sounds strange - but these are my reasons or my thinking:
- fear of abandonment and rejection by my support people eg. doctor
- loss of identity
- fear of being lonely
- constantly needing reassurance from others
- don't trust or believe in myself
- i am comfortable in this 'cocoon' and scared of what there is out there
i do have a fantastic caring and supportive doctor. he is so understandingn of my mental health and BPD and the struggles i face daily.
i guess i am writing this out so i can see it in writing. not expecting replies, becasue i am sure all of you are wanting to get better.
and that i am a very strange odd person
