I think that for me the way "past it" was to start thinking outside the box. I had been seeing a therapist for 8 1/2 years - and I was becoming increasingly miserable (even while I was learning to cope better with being miserable). It wasn't working for me.
The turning point came when I said "As terrified as I am to make a change - to do something different - life can't get much worse than it is now." And I took the risk, and life got better.
I guess the bottom line is - if something isn't working, then try something else.
Was it easy? Of course not! Read the archives - I started posting here just before I made the change. It is all here.
For **ME** the change required was to go from CBT to Psychodynamic therapy. Each person will have their own path.
