Yeah. It mostly sucks at least for me. A cornerstone of a lot of my personal crap is lack of self worth which makes improvement pretty tough. I've been in therapy for over 5 years now, and understanding concepts is much easier than applying them. Of course that's just my experience.

That's a lot more common than you would imagine. You're worth it though. Sometimes you may not feel like it. Show up for yourself, anyway.

You're right. I know my experience isn't uncommon and that's unfortunate. Thank you fur the kind words.

You're so welcome. I've been there, and in therapy off and on for a lot of years. We're in it together.
