I am gaining a new perspective on life, grateful for medical professionals. I feel I have been given another opportunity to hope, live, and be happy again. After feeling so lost, overwhelmed, and defeated from medical issues that later opened Pandora's box.
I thought I had my life, with my family, all figured out and well balanced. Turns out, when a person burns a candle at both ends, it will go out faster. I was not aware of my cause and effect, for me to maintain my daily activities, positive mentality, and giving nature. It turns out, I learned I was not at strong as I thought. I didn't understand my inability to cope with my conditions. My Neurologist had referred me to Dr. Doris Wise, to assist me with coping skills. She had given me a book to borrow, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma, by Bessel Van Der Kolk. He discusses the amazing experiences through Neurofeedback. I felt like I was lost, in constant pain, and misunderstood.
Dr. Wise wanted me to experience the ability to truly understand how to be me again, so she referred me to, The Balanced Mind. The studies, Dr. Van Der Kolk, and my needs, I could benefit. I first was skeptic but open minded, because I wanted to live life, not just merely survive, I am willing to try anything at this point. It had taken the 2nd week when I noticed positive differences in my feelings. I started to have the will to live again, to hope, and dream again. My body may not be kind to me now, but at least now I feel like I can breathe again. The darkness has faded away. I may not ever be the old me, but at least I can feel happy again and have faith again.
I wish this was around when I was thriving. I feel this would have been even more beneficial for my children, to assist them to be more self aware. I have even told my children, they need to have this treatment. It may assist them in college and work life.
Thank you Gretchen! I am so grateful for you, helping me become more balanced. I am still a patient and continuing care, I cannot wait to have even greater results.
