Hi I got this,
I feel for you...you’re clearly struggling. Your anxiety sounds overwhelming, draining, & exhausting...
You’ve had harrowing & traumatic experiences of abuse. I feel for you, as you went through what no child, or person, should ever have to go through...I’m so sorry it happened.
I think you made a very courageous decision to seek help. I admire your survival instinct & bravery. I think asking for help saved you in many ways...
I think it’s great that you’re receiving counselling/therapy, but I also hear that you’re still struggling with the anxiety. I wonder if maybe you could ask your therapist if there are other strategies or therapies that you could explore?
It just sounds as though maybe you need something additional to the CBT to help you manage your anxiety. Maybe you could explain to him/her that you’re still struggling a lot & would like to know what additional therapies or strategies might help you.
Just a gentle idea...
Please feel free to share any further comments, feelings, etc. While there is no rush or pressure to reply, it would be lovely to hear how you’re going, but only if you’re feeling up to it.
Kindness and care,
Pepper
