Your brick story

I've really just worked this through and I feel like an undiscovered idiot that I haven't worked this out before.

I have kept relating to depression as if it was an external thing - it isn't it is part of me - I don't like it anymore than my fat thighs - but it is me - not a thing that I have to wear and then can take off.

It is me.

    What a vital and helpful insight and shift in level of self awareness. Sometimes externalising can make something feel much easier to cope with - and that has its time and space - so allow that as part of process if you can. Bringing something in creates some new demands for self learning.

    You think it is you? Or you think it is part of you, sometimes? We are not all the one thing? It is in you, maybe, it I don't feel that it IS you - anymore than you left elbow is you - this seems to be a great insight, as Roze says. Take it to C. the Great, eh! Talk, talk, talk...

    so much love
