Had Talk Therapy Session with Reports/medication discussion

As the title reads, I had a therapy session today. It's been 2 weeks as he's been on vacation (holiday). We went over the assessment. He's going to read it more as he said he didn't receive it but he got the snapshot twice. Both were worth discussing. Sage and these reports helped me to see that some things I'm dealing with were related to trauma from assualt. Something I thought wasn't anything of importance helped shape me and added an identity mask. I don't know how to explain it, and probably wouldn't anyways. I'm not asking anything or sharing anything of importance. I just wanted to share basically, that he was interested in working along with the reports. He understood RSD and my experiences with it. Being acknowledged by him when doctor dismissed it was encouraging. I'm looking forward to my next visit. I hope it helps. I'm no longer on ADHD meds as they weren't helping. The impulse control one is. Did have a setback, but learned the more of the Adderal or Vyvanse, (tried both without success), the effectiveness of impulse control medication decreased. The more the impulse control medication would be increased, the less effective the ADHD meds. So, I said no more ADHD meds. Impulse control was most important at this stage of my life. Now, to work on my biological foundation of sleep. Been asleep by 1:00ish the last two nights. I'm waking up on my own without an alarm. I'm working on going to bed sooner. From 3-4am to 1:00 is a big step. I hope to keep that up and then work my way to 11/12 for sleep. If I wake up early on my own, then my time will be then, not staying up until 3-4 with Revenge Sleep or whatever the term is. I'll have it when everyone is sleeping in the early morning. My goal. I think next is working on talking too much and overexplaining. Maybe that will come up during the 6 weeks. Sorry for the long message that is something I probably would skip as it appears overwhelming to read that much.

C'est la vie!
