I am in a loop right now I am embarrassed to admit I hurt again. What can you share of getting over new hurts? Thank you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dear Danielle,<\/p>\n<p>There have been hurts, but I deal with them quickly by acknowledging the hurt and trying to place it where it belongs. If it&#8217;s an old hurt resurfacing, I remember what I&#8217;d learned from the past and let it go by not allowing it to affect my present or future. It&#8217;s easier said than done, but I try to stay on the side of reality and be optimistic. For me, insecure thoughts tend to threaten my present. \u00a0I accept that life is a challenge and my healing journey never ends.<\/p>\n<p>I admit that I, too, feel shame at times when taken back into dark thoughts and despair. I&#8217;m glad it doesn&#8217;t happen often. It&#8217;s hard for me to accept those temporary bad times after all the accomplishments I&#8217;ve made, but truthfully, I&#8217;m human, just like everyone else, and suffer setbacks now and then. \u00a0The difference is now I can recognize these times and quickly address them.\u00a0It&#8217;s important to have a trusted someone to talk dark thoughts over with. Whatever helps you feel better, just do it.<\/p>\n<p>Please don&#8217;t be too hard on yourself. No one&#8217;s perfect and we all need help at times.<\/p>\n<p>Wishing you all my best!<\/p>\n<p>Karen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comment by Danielle on 01 Oct 2011 at 8:29 pm I have great respect for you and would like to ask if you could share any recent hurts that took you for a loop back to end of your therapy.
