Bozo,
I am aware of learned helplessness.
And I've also done exactly what you have done. I lived in my home for 20 years. There was a community club directly against the street. I was a member for the 20 years I lved there.
Yet, after Trevor became an addict, and I went into a major depression, things changed. I spent many years looking out the window; just looking. I did not attending events held at the club. I didn't go to the book club discussions, even though I was repeatedly invited. And I even stopped going to the beach down the street! I lived in paradise, and was afraid of living it. Terribly sad...
Anyway, I'm glad your TKD teacher is a counselor, and is able to help you. Keep up the good work you are doing for you. You deserve it!
PS, How did the meeting go with the doc?

Shalom!
