Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Posted February 20, 2006 Twin.less, It is not unusual for anyone to need 'tune ups' with a therapist.In addition to our healing from a BPD parent, there are just a great deal of stressors out there, and therapy can be what anyone needs at certain times of our lives. Life is an ongoing process, so growing and learning about ourselves will also be lifelong. Sylvia > > ... I've been in therapy before .. and have not been in a long time. I think I'm due for a tune up because I got really depressed over the holidays. > and for me ... It may be an ongoing thing.... tuneups > I can tell you that for me... when I revisited painful experiences... I felt awful at first.. and then... I felt much better. Almost like I had to hurt first in order to feel better. > I picked up the book " How to survive a borderline parent " ... read the first 2 pages in the forward... and wept the entire time. Only 2 pages. After I'd read it, I had to go to work .. and felt like someone had socked me with 50lb bags of something... Then, the next day, after a good nights sleep. I felt better. > > ... and I feel better reading all these posts. I feel like I can be stronger > handling The Nada. > > ... and I think you've answered a question I've been having. In my search for a therapist... I think I should find someone who knows alot about BPD's and treating their families. > > twin.less > ...... Quote
