Complex #5 - progress and throwbacks

[Complex]

I like this thought tho. Because it's the truth, and it helps me detaching.
Went to the therapiat today. Not sure if she's very good. She is a good person, good listener, observer etc. but I don't know, are therapists generally giving practical advice of what I can do to overcome certain things? Or maybe my expectations are too high?

I want to achieve 3 main goals for myself through IC:
1) Get more energy/motivation for myself to do the things I want
2) Get over my controlling issues
3) Stop living in the past or the future but in the now and be less hard on myself

Those three should lead to getting over my depression and being able to live my life more happily like I used to.

Is that too much to ask for a therapy? I know it's a long term thing too...
