Veronica,
Thats so great to hear you went out for a walk! and thinking of booking a trip! Excellent!
I think as you too have found, this whole experience absolutely strips you to your core, everything you were or knew or yourself is no longer. I remember looking in the mirror and not seeing myself anymore. I dont think I want to be that person anymore, but its certainly hard finding your feet in who you are now.
It is difficult with so much negative thoughts going around, but keep venting it will actually help get you moving and back in control of what it is you want to do in terms of your recovery, what that looks like for you. Walking, exercising, swimming, meditation..whatever you choose. Just those things will start to give you confidence and empower you to really take back control. So keep channeling that energy coming in a good way, to benefit you.
Yes there will still be shocking days, and I find my tolerance isnt as great these days, so get overwhelmed very easy. So be kind to yourself...youve earned it!!!!
I figure if somehow sharing helps in any small way, I want to remind everyone, no matter the depths and how dark...you absolutely will rise back up even when you thought you couldnt and you will move on, stronger, wiser and more self nuturing than you ever thought you could be.
Keep those great thoughts happening!!
Hugs
Melinda
