Davit I know you said this was not a discussion thread and I am sorry I hope you don't mind if I express my feeling here too if that is ok with you..I don't want to hijack your thread or anything. I was accused of hijacking a thread in the quit smoking site a couple of months ago. At least one of the members said so. I just found out a couple of days ago what the term hijacking a thread means. I still don't see how you can hijack a thread in a support group, this is if it is really a support group..Doesn't really matter now because I don't offer much support their anymore anyway now.
Anyway on to what I was going to say..about CBT and my functioning in a normal world..
Function yes!
In a Normal world?
What is Acceptable now and considered Normal was not normal at all when I was growing up. I am not sure if I can Accept the New Normal. I really don't want to. It goes against every thing I believe in and I guess the way I was raised and brought up would not be considered Normal anymore..So this is one of those Core beliefs I am holding one to, my belieft and values are to important to me.
I refuse to become one of them, a Apple that is. I know survival of the fittes,and strongest and all.. Oh Well I have always been a Orange all my life and like who I am. If I don't survive as long as them At least I will have gone down fighting for what I believe in and can hold my head up high because of my ideals and who I am..
So for now I will do my best to function when in their normal world. I will go out and get my supplies when needed and go to the doctor if needed but I Hope to God I never become Normal like one of them..
Yes CBT will help me function in their world when I have to be in it..
