Amygdala Retraining

So, I've started the Gupta program and I thought I could use the blog to keep track of it.

I find it all very emotional. Basically I had given up. I thought the rest of my life would just be pain, upset, disability, or at best severely limited by these. Never working again, always dependent on benefits, stranded in the UK for lack of money and an inability to handle the stress of moving after 8 years living here. There is so much of value that I've lost. I was understandably despondent about this. To hear someone give a rational explanation for the condition, and then a rational approach to treating it is like a dam giving way. I've wept more than once watching the DVD. But it is very early days.
