Sorry Pattnee, I forgot you were in IC. I’ll try to remember the details a bit better next time.
I know you probably have stuff you’re working on atm with her, but this would be something you could bring along to your next session.
“Can we put aside ten minutes at the end of this session for something? I’d like to talk about management strategies for when I become short term overwhelmed with grief and self blame.”
Let your IC help you with that.
Bear in mind you’ll never completely fix it. The sign of progress will be when you notice that those periods of extreme grief and self blame start to become: - less frequent, and/or - of less duration before you snap out of it.
