About

I should admit that the preparation stage is dull. There is no way to make it otherwise and I would rather say so now than have you conclude after three weeks that nothing is happening. It involves sleep, routine, and a set of unremarkable capacities being put in place. It is also non-negotiable. Flashbacks and similar intrusions are only safely approached once you have reliable means of interrupting them, and skipping that groundwork is how people end up worse than when they started. We do the dull part properly. It usually takes a matter of weeks rather than months, and everything afterwards depends on it. I have picked up enough people from work that skipped this stage to be unmoved by impatience, including my own. Dull is fine. If you want the boring part done properly, get in touch. Everything afterwards depends on the dull part being done properly.
