My IFS Story
@myifsstory.bsky.social
Hi! This is my bluesky account dedicated to my IFS story, a blog where I talk about my story of going through therapy. I'm doing this because I want to encourage others to try therapy, even if you feel like you don't deserve it
This is my sixth session, and the third and final session where the focus is on my Frustrated part. While he will come up occasionally in the future, this is where I met with him and the Fast part to talk about how to handle difficult problems

Session 6: Frustration Part 3

I decided to do something a bit different for this post. I will occasionally write a short character essay titled "8 C’s and 5 P’s in Media." This post I focused on one of my favorite characters: Nausicaä. Please check it out and let me know what you think! myifsstory.com/2025/03/17/8...
8 C’s and 5 P’s in Media: Nausicaä
For this post, I wanted to do something a little different. My parts pull me in different directions, and when I do the same thing constantly, I tend to get bored or pulled in a different direction…

Here is my next therapy session when I met with my Frustrated part to talk about why he made me angry when trying to solve difficult problems. I think a lot of people have a part like this. They're always helpful but don't always do it in the healthiest ways

In this session of my therapy journey, I try to meet with a part that makes me frustrated and pulls me away from my work. However, an opposing part pops up and needs some reassurance before allowing me to meet with the Frustrated part myifsstory.com/2025/02/15/s...

Session 4: Frustration Part 1
The next week I didn’t struggle with fidgeting nearly as much. When I was in a work meeting and was speaking, my hands remained mostly still. It felt good to communicate without looking or fe…

Just posted my 2nd post on My IFS Story! In this session I encounter a "pusher" or a part that wants to push forward despite the concerns of another part.

Session 2: A Pushing Part
The next session started similarly to the previous session. Ryan asked me how I was feeling that week and I told him. I may have just said I was good or fine because I wasn’t totally comforta…

Just posted a blog post where I go in depth about my first session! (Just noting it's not verbatim, it was a while ago so I don't fully remember everything but I did my best to remember what I could)

Though I am definitely nervous and scared to share my story, I really hope it resonates with others. We all have our own struggles in life, and how we deal with them is important. Starting therapy was the best thing I've ever done, and I hope to encourage others to do the same
