I'm approaching my fifth week of my third or fourth ever partial hospitalization program. I'm feeling better. I want to believe I can actually recover and won't need to come back (at least, not for depression, because I've still got some major anxiety issues to work through) But how do you get past the fear of relapse? Something outside of your control, something really terrible, sending you into a tailspin? You don't have to have the answer to that lol. I'm more so asking myself. All I know is that I hope to subscribe to your full newsletter when I have an income one day! The preview I received was amazing! Thanks for being such an awesome advocate for recovery. You're basically an example/proof I'm using against my depression's doubt and hopelessness lol.
Hi there! I was wondering how you're doing. I know you weren't asking, but it took years before I stopped being afraid of relapse. Service--doing peer support--really helped with that. I don't know why, but when I started, that fear quieted. I'm not typically a volunteer type. I also know that whatever happens, I'll handle it. I'm thinking of you!
Also, email me with your email, and I'll give you a free subscription. Paid subscribers help me subsidize anyone else who needs it: mssarahfay1516@gmail.com
