SP

have not been seeing a therapist, but I have been considering one.

Probably a good idea.

Quote:
My mind and some of my heart just feels HEAVY.

When your heart is not “heavy”…what are you doing (not work related or child related)?

Quote:
I simply want to feel happy again. I want to feel that life has some purpose, some path, some dependability.

Interesting I read this and the one thing that stood out for me was…..”some purpose”, “some path” – SP, maybe that purpose is YOU right NOW. Maybe the path is “healing”. In terms of dependability, that is a tough one. Life is like a river dude, it flow freely a lot of it outside our control. Finding the balance and still being happy is the hard part. Have you considered helping at a soup kitchen or at a church?

but it just isn't fulfilling me.

Cause external things cannot make YOU happy inside. YOU need to find peace within yourself.

Quote:
I am improving, day by day, week by week, but it has been on a very slow timeline.

Day by day and “slow” are normal SP. You do not want to rush it. Think of it this way….this time, these feelings, they will HELP you become what YOU are meant to be.

Train yourself to just focus on today! IMO, it is one of the most important things we can teach ourselves.

So what else is going on in the life of suckerpunch?
