Well, I'm right there with you. The hardest part about my nearly 22 years of recovery? When my mental health seems to go off the rails. Because I have a lot of time; I should be able to handle this, right? I still learn and relearn how to surrender and ask for help. Like you, I have an excellent relationship with both my psychiatrist and therapist, and yet.... shame likes to rear its ugly head at me. The good news is that instead of self-destructing, I do know how to ask for help. <3
