I have been wanting to post to this thread and have tried to write many times, only to change my mind at the last minute and not do it.
Big subject for me.
I am feeling very invisible these days. I can't even see my own reflection in the mirror except for specific parts of my body - the entirety of me just hasn't been there for a long time now - years, perhaps. Photos taken of me in recent years I find just appalling, except for the occasional head shot. But that body is not one I know, nor is it one that I love. I can't even talk of it as my own.
I brought it up, briefly, in therapy on Friday. T was visibly disturbed by the upset in my voice. I am seeing her again this week - usually I would be seeing every other week but am feeling fragile at the moment because of stressed boundaries with DH and his family.
This invisibility seems to be part of the depression that I've been laboring under these last few years.
If I can I will try to be there for chat. I don't know yet.
