sun_moon Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 I have this book helping me to heal, I find myself stuck in this one chapter that I cannot seem to want to complete or do. I am supposed to list out all these things about the entire relationship, its called the relationship inventory, but I cant seem to get myself motivated or willing to do it. I am afraid that once I start writing the positives/negatives, and all the detailed things its requiring, I will just breakdown and rehash something I cant recover from quickly. It even states that I will have to take extra care of myself and it will take a while to do this. I am committing to this starting tonight, I will include this in my journaling process. Why am I compartmentalizing this? Anyone have any experience, insights, thoughts, or advice on this?
Nohbody Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 The cold hard reality is pretty jarring. Whenever you start lining up pros and cons and facts and figures you realize how much you've been rationalizing and how self-deceptive you've been... but it really is going to help in the long run. I wish you the very best, and I think you are very brave.
Author sun_moon Posted August 7, 2011 Author Posted August 7, 2011 Thanks Nohbody. So as promised I kept my commitment to myself, after my journaling, I began my list last night after going out with friends. I could have easily gone to sleep because it was so late in the evening but I am glad I stuck to my guns. I will keep building on it.
