Karen, This is progress!! Don't stop doing the journaling though because the pain is worse. Get mad and determined that this pain is not going to keep you from your feelings. Also keep in mind that for most its not repressed sadness that does it but repressed rage. The rage is harder to get to; but, when you are feeling the sadness chances are the rage is also being stirred up. You might want to try punching a pillow or something and verbalizing the rage just to see how that goes. Maybe you can breakthrough and push deeper into the feelings. Take chances and experiment with it. Every experience gives you more information and understanding. |

Thanks ACL..
Miehnesor, I am sure I have alot of both past and present rage.. Anger, in general, scares me even more than sadness..
GUESS WHAT EVERYONE? I drove myself today for the first time in four weeks! I felt soreness, especially in the right wrist when turning, but I did it anyway! |

I think that in the future this will be known as "Karen's Turning Point Post"! Just don't back away from digging deeper no matter how upset you get of what you might find. Once the rage is in your conscious mind, it will not be able physically cause TMS. |
