recovery

[MrAndy]

I read a lot of recovery threads because lets face it it re assures us there is light at the end of the tunnel ?
How do people score or rate their recovery ?,when my family ask me i say im 80% better but at the moment I must admit the final 20% seems miles away.I asked my therapist who I have a final meeting with next week for an updated anxiety test ,he refused and said it only matters how I feel not what a score or test shows
I would be interested to hear peoples thoughts on this :)

Do we recover or learn how to cope with help, our triggers or problems. I have been up and down over the years and I think the last 20% is feeling normal but then normal is different for everyone :huh:

[MrAndy]

good point ray,i do feel normal now but still anxious for no apparent reason

My CBT therapist told me I'm 70% cured of Panic Disorder but I feel more like 95%. The anxiety is difficult to rate because I still get good and bad days. I'll know for sure once we've moved. But I feel tones better then I did this time 6 months ago, everyone can see the massive improvement in me, just got to nudge the rest off.

Great thread btw.
