One way that clients and I communicate with one another is through music.
The song "the Gift" by Seether really hits home for me as a song that represents the anguish and shame that comes from feeling unwell. As ya listen, may you feel a greater understanding of either yourself or someone else. You are not alone,
The Gift
Hold me now, I need to feel relief
Like I never wanted anything
I suppose I'll let this go and find a reason I'll hold on to
I'm so ashamed of defeat
And I'm out of reason to believe in me
I'm out of trying to get by
I'm so afraid of the gift you give me
I don't belong here and I'm not well
I'm so ashamed of the lie I'm living
Right on the wrong side of it all
I can't face myself when I wake up and look inside a mirror
I'm so ashamed of that thing
I suppose I'll let it go 'til I have something more to say for me
I'm so afraid of defeat
And I'm out of reason to believe in me
I'm out of trying to define
I'm so afraid of the gift you give me
I don't belong here and I'm not well
I'm so ashamed of the lie I'm living
Right on the wrong side of it all
Hold me now, I need to feel complete
Like I matter to the one I need
I'm so afraid of the gift you give me
I don't belong here and I'm not well
I'm so ashamed of the lie I'm living
Right on the wrong side of it all
Now I'm ashamed of this
I am so ashamed of this
Now I'm so ashamed of me
I am so ashamed of me
