I think the fact that I don't need to be here is the part that scares me the most!!! I'm really more stable than I've ever been, moving into the full time workforce for the first time ever, moving completely away from family....it's all totally new. I told my therapist I feel like I'm "living as a stranger"...the "old" me doesn't work any more, and I'm not yet sure who this "new" me is. The fact that I'm aware of that, and willing to sit with the discomfort rather than try to regain that equalibrium, is apparently a very, very healthy sign. Nobody ever told me being healthy was this challenging!

Really, I'm doing well. Just can use an extra boost to my support network while I transition away from some of my "real life" supports...

Awesome! And yes, I've found being healthy can be challenging as well.
