Here we go…

by gcasestudy

Dear Internet,
Well, todays the day.  Nikki is coming to my house to purge me of my neurosis (although that’s not quite how she put it)!  In preparation I’ve been banned from my diet coke, apparently full fat is better than diet because of the aspartane.  I am dutifully doing as I’m told. This evening she plans to check what I can and can’t eat by waving my arms around or some such thing, and clear away some of my baggage, I’m not sure how long she plans to be here, but she could be here some time!

I’ll let you know what it was like, and how I get on over the coming weeks,
G

We all need a little freedom.

by gcasestudy

Dear Internet,

Tomorrow is my first session with Nikki.  I’m nervously excited about it, but having spoken to Nikki a few times already, it’s definitely a good kind of nervous excitement.  She asked me what it was she could help me with…

Me -    weight, definitely need help controlling cravings and stopping my emotional eating…
Nikki-   Sure, no problem, anything else?
Me –    erm…
oh I hate making phone calls..
meeting new people..
going new places…
wild animals.. they scare me, ya know like cows and sheep and birds and things.
Oh, I sound quite neurotic…
Nikki –  nope, that’s all fine.  When I’ve finished with you you’ll be freed from it all.

It was only after she’d said the word freed, that I realised for the first time in my life that I felt trapped.  She’d summed it up with one word, FREED.  I would LOVE to be freed from all the little neurotic things that stop me walking up to another mum in the playground and introducing myself or just jumping in the car to go to the shops like most ‘normal’ people do and if TFT can do that for me, then I’m in!

Hope you enjoy following me on this journey as much as I’m going to enjoy making it,

G
