Stuck

I get stuck on letting it go. I read Claire weekes hope and hope and help for your nerves and I couldn't stop being afraid of it. That thought stuck in my head and now that the anxiety is back so is the thought.

Hang in there! Think of it as a work in progress. Our brains are use to a particular pattern of thought and it takes time to reprogram the new thoughts. Be patient with yourself. Consider how many years of thinking the original way has to be undone. Remember it is a marathon not a sprint. There will be setbacks but given enough time, we can move forward.

Keep trying until you can get a positive response - then try to build some momentum from that small victory.

I need some help with this. I am usually bright and astute about matters like this. Some years back, when I was depressed after a family loss, I was vulnerable to scammers. . The people were heartless and threatening. It happened a long time ago, but I still am a shadow of myself. I do see people, and of course my husband, but I still am a shadow. I am ashamed to even talk about this in detail to my therapist. She knows about part of this and will say: Can you fix this? I am so hard on myself. I am a good person who is also an animal lover. Thank goodness I have my feet on the ground and am ever so careful as I normally am. I am out here.
