Dear Lily:

Good thing you have a day off tomorrow. Also, I am glad your friend sent you a message. You wrote that you had “somewhat of a nervous breakdown today”, but your very post, today, reads organized, not at all by an individual distressed. It is sensible, follows logic. I figure you felt so badly when you didn’t know the answer to the question about the coffee filter that you felt as if.. the sky was falling down, catastrophizing, but it wasn’t that bad. You didn’t really experience a nervous breakdown.

You are making progress, and like I wrote to you before, the only progress possible in the emotional health context is gradual and it takes a long, long time. But I do see significant and undeniable progress in your emotional health compared to your early posts of long ago.
