I'm not sure I'm looking for validation because then I would have to trust someone else's assessment. And IF I'm doing something, I generally do it well. It is continuing to do things at all that I worry about. Generally I think I'm looking for someone to have a lot of confidence or hope for me...because I seem to have lost mine.
I asked me Therapist today: "this will get better, right?" He said that is his hope. This worries me...I want him to whole heartly BELIEVE that it will. I think he wants ME to believe it. And right now I'm not sure I do.
It is hard to know what we want but not know how to sustain it.
