I have been in therapy on and off for years. In therapy, I have spoken about childhood trauma, my problem being too emotional, my issue with not being able to be consistent with my goals/attitudes, being too emotional and not logical enough, among other things.
I have always been in therapy for something that happened. Before I started therapy this last time, I interviewed my therapist. I knew before we had our first session that she was a perfect fit for me.
I learned that I am not too emotional. I am enough. I do not need to carry baggage.
I ran out of h.s.a. money for therapy. But the last session I had, I called my daughter to tell her about a new kind of therapy....
I called it "Forward Therapy".
I'm focusing on what I want to happen, not on the damage that has been done.
