Yes, I have a comfort person...my husband. Sometimes he gets really stressed by the neediness that I get when I am sooo anxious. It's hard to have to depend on someone like that, too, to make it through the day sometimes. I'm glad that you were able to talk to her and work it out.
It is great to hear things are clearing up and that you were able to talk to her. How is everything else going for you? How are you finding the sessions?
Continue to post and let us know how you are doing.
I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with the person you trust the most. Have you spoken to her at all about this? Is she in fact feeling overwhelmed? Perhaps you should sit down with her and have a talk about how you are feeling, and how she is doing. Also, remember that we are always here to listen and to talk to...and you never have to feel guilty about posting! Many members have been through the same thing as you, and I am sure they would be more than willing to listen and to share their thoughts and suggestions. Please re-read through the program as well, it might help
Hang in there, and please keep us posted on how you are doing,
I'm having problems with my comfort person. I feel like it's getting to the brink that she can't tolerate me anymore and it makes me feel guilty to put her in a condition like that. I don't know how to accept this all. I feel so trapped and sick. I've been waiting for my divorce to finalize and it still has not after many months, my lawyers is really bad and just thinking about it makes me sick. I don't feel free yet because I'm still tied down to that and I'm agoraphobic because of it too. My comfort person was my rock and someone I can lean on and get comfort from, but I feel like she is crumbling because of me and I don't know what to do.
Does everyone have a comfort person? Am I doing this onto myself for depending on her? How understanding are they?
