askye, I can see how both approaches could be useful to you. I hope you get lots of good out of it.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

erin, seconding what others have said, look up CBT and DBT and see if either of those are things that might interest you, and you can usually call your insurance carrier and ask them to give you names of those therapists that specialize in either of those. Best of luck to you.

Can't sleep. Coughing/wheezing too much.

Sj, you are doing really well. Perfection is a difficult game with diabetes. It takes awhile to figure out how everything works for you. That is a really good level of control so quickly. You got a lot of good advice above. Congratulations on doing so well

CBT is a good therapy for me. And lots of people have had good luck with EMDR (I think?)

CBT is a good therapy for me.
My mind went to a porny place (the one where CBT has a different meaning).
