Going through therapy has been one of the biggest factors to help me think clearly and “stay above water” during this process. I’ve learned so much about myself and how I think and process things. I have learned to be patient with myself through this process. Some days are easier than others, but I’ll take any progress I make! I used to think that if I needed Therapy, that meant I was weak or broken. I finally got to a point (with the help of my husband) that it was time to start Therapy.
There were a few months before Therapy that I was depressed and didn’t want to do anything and life wasn’t the best. I was so sad about not being able to get pregnant and I was blaming myself and telling myself that it was my fault. Sometimes that thought still comes to mind, but going to Therapy has helped my mind set and to remember that I’m not going through this process alone. I have had to rely on Christ and my belief/knowledge of the Savior more so now, than ever before. That is the main thing that will get me through this.
The main thing that has helped me is to remember to not overdo things. He has mentioned that everyone has a cup and depending on what is going on, decides the size of the cup and how much you can handle. Having this example has helped me so much.
