So, it has been awhile since I have posted and there has been a lot going on. I have had 2 meltdowns since my last session with Jade. My first one was on a Sunday, we had Home Teachers planned and I was stressed because my house was a mess. I had talked to Jade the day before about 1st Corinthians chapter 13 and we talked about Charity. I started thinking of the person I was, the person that served continually, and really, I loved doing it. I think of the person I have become and I became so overwhelmed that I freaked out. I called the Home Teachers and asked them not to come. I went to sacrament and then, I came home and took a nap. I was exhausted. I slept thru Abbey's talk and her presentation of her Faith in God award. I felt bad about that, and if you can't tell, I still do.
My last melt down was on Saturday. I did not have any therapy last week. I think I became overwhelmed. I also think that I had some abandonment issues with Jade, because I did not have a therapy session. With my abandonment issues I became completely overwhelmed. I started texting Jade, trying to get any form of response, I got nothing. Then, after not getting a response, the abandonment issues escalated, which then caused more excessive texting. Now, after sitting with my emotions I have come to the Shame portion of this cycle. I am embarrassed over the excessive texting. I'm embarrassed that I opened up in my texts. I feel like I gave him too much information. I feel like he now knows the real me. I thought about the job of a therapist, his job is to listen, then I started wondering if I was paying Jade to care. I asked my Bishop, he said that therapists don't get paid enough, but that they are genuinely concerned.
I meet with Jade tomorrow. I am stressed about my appointment. A part of me does not want to go. A part of me wants to let things settle down and maybe show up to my appointment on the 13th. A part of me wants to be done with therapy all together. I keep hearing Jade's voice in my head telling me to "push thru it." I am tired of pushing. The sad truth is I am not happy where I am, but pushing thru is scary and hard.
