. > In sum, I feel as if I have lost myself.
------------------------------------
How did you feel when you weren't lost? How does that compare to this lost feel?
Everything that I have fought for, everything that I have done to make myself stronger over my conscious lifetime, has been lost.
-----------------------------------------
Everything? I mean, do you mean everything? There's not one thing or resource, experience, feeling, philosophy, achievement, or anything that you still don't possess?
I do not like what I see emerging, .............
---------------------------------
What does that look like to you? How do you know you don't like it? hOW does it differ from a scene you would like to see emerge?
and I hope, quite frankly, that it's a phase and not who I am.
--------------------------------------------
Does this emergence reveal your identity, who you are? Is it a part of you? all of you? How does it differ from who you feel and see yourself to be at present and past?
I see a much weaker person.
--------------------------------------
Weaker in what way? Is it: Weaker or vulnerable? Weaker or more confused? Weaker or more overwhelmed?
You have no idea, how hard that is for me to admit. Even under a fake name, in a totally anonymous medium.
------------------------------------
No, I don't, but you have shown a great deal of courage in taking a step for asking for help. What part of you is willing to act this courageous? Are you confusing your courage for weakness?
Best,
Dave
