> Yet strangely there seems to be a lot of freedom in that.

***sometimes letting go and accepting the things we cannot change, IS very freeing. We stop stressing over things that we can't do anything about.

> My boyfriend dumped me (heartbroken, lonely), I didn't get a job I wanted (trapped!), my mom is having another bipolar episode (not now PLEASE) and oh, I could just go on and on. Lots of bad stuff to process that happened all at once.

***I'm sorry, its hard when it all comes on at once like that...

> I'm not being terribly productive at work and all I want to do is sit on my couch.

***Hard to get going isn't it? Me too.

> The only thing that helps is therapy. I can leave there and feel truly comforted. Unfortunately it doesn't last. I cry everyday. Except for today - I haven't cried today.

***Yeah, I like my T too.

> I think it is because I have accepted the fact that things are hopeless - hence the strange "freeing" feeling.

***Its ok. Just give yourself a break and enjoy feeling free for a bit. I think its ok. Mebbe its numbing out. But thats ok too for awhile. WE all need a break sometimes.
Take care,
