R&R - "relapse & recovery"

samanthakate_lorna — Sat, 15 Feb 2014 02:48:15 GMT

I've found myself stuck in a never ending loop of what i like to call "R&R".
Not your typical R&R... i wish it was restful & relaxing... but a physically
& emotionally draining process of falling, recovery & repeat.

my life at the moment is a cocktail of problems with shots on the side every
second i have a chance to take a minute to breathe... i feel as if i'm drowning
& have lost any kind of control over anything.

Anyone relate?

Hello Samantha, yes I do know what you mean and I think a lot of others will here too. You might call it the recovery rollercoaster! For some of us, we will deal with these issues recurring throughout our lives, just like some people have asthma and have to deal with it. I think a lot of stress can come from thinking that we are climbing a magical stairway to being cured, rather than being on a continual journey that will have rocky points throughout. Can you tell us a bit more about what is going on for you at the moment and what things you are trying to do to cope?
