The ONLY way out is through. Through the pain, grief, rage, stored trauma being released from your body. It all takes time.

Our biggest battle is mental. Getting my head in a good place each AM is critical. And HOPE is the top priority.

Your body is your inner therapist, always pushing you to know your real story; to make progress toward your central goals. Dan Ratner

Every short respite from fear calms your nerves, so your sensations become less intense, until they are only a memory. —Claire Weekes

Reading a good tale. Playing some fun games. Did my workout and dishes. Accepting where I am for today.

Lots of journaling yesterday. It started out sugary sweet. Nothing wrong. By the last page, I was getting somewhere!

Got my own breakfast! (First time in a while). These are the steps I need. :)

I’m going to try an experiment today and not think or use the word “symptoms” (or any equivalent) all day.

Went to the park and then got an ice cream cone today. Good baby step! :)

Riding gently over the ups and downs. Floating along. Everything’s OK. I’m OK! :)

On a roll! Did all the dishes last night and tidied up around the kitchen. (it’s hard for me.) I’m proud!
