Your story is familiar to me.
Wish it weren't, but maybe for a reason, it is.
Because baby, I'm here to tell you that YES you can get to the other side, and it's like nothing you imagined, because you can't imagine it, it's out of your experience. But you Will get to know, and love and trust yourself (kind of like me most days, now). I did it with meds and self-medication still, but I'm going to beat that, too.
Because I beat the monster inside myself.
And it was just a little green frog.
Sitting in there, croaking away, going, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me ...
and I did, and the frog disappeared,
and I had myself there, Whole for the first time, absolutely complete and, for a second, absolutely beautiful.
That was the gift.. that second. Y'know the strange thing? It feels like a second but it was actually a couple of years.
Keep working, keep up therapy, keep up your meds and keeping talkin' here baby, 'cause it's Great Satisfaction ... sincerely, lovingly, and just a little bit tired and maybe more than a titch feeling floating .. (oi) Susan.
