• Bandwidth

  

  All therapists have catch phrases they repeat.  I remember Dr. MacMillan often quoted BB King to me “it’s a cruel world and we’re all in it alone.”  Problem is when I look that up I don’t find what what quote he was referring to.  Anyway, something I find myself saying often is “we each have a bandwidth of mental health.  If the full continuum runs from Manson to Mother Theresa, we each have a section which includes our top functioning and our bottom, and we bounce between them.”

  So I have a wide bandwidth and I actually visit my worst functioning (internally) more than most people seem to, while appearing to function in my mid-range and accomplishing more than most at the spot.  I’ve been sick for about three weeks straight from Cymbalta withdrawal and I’ve been watching myself barely function.  It really scares me to scrape the bottom, off mood and productivity.  OTOH, it scares me that I could get used to it, and get away with it.

  I’m so sensitive that when I don’t feel well physically it’s hard to ignore.  I’ve got allergies and perimenopausal constant pms.  It’s times like these when I wish I did not have a body.  I long for heaven.  Btw, since I was last around here, I became a hypnotherapist.  http://hoodriverhypnosis.com (there are some samples on there under the recording tab).  My goal is to develop my skills to explore past lives and between lives.
