Hi everyone! First i want to say that i hope everyone is doing well. I check in once and awhile and read your posts, but i don't always get a chance to reply. I just want you all to know that even though i may not be here i'm still thinking about you <3

Sooo I have a question regarding my own therapy that i was hoping you guys could help me with. I see my T twice a week...not because i'm not doing well, but because I always do so much better when i have that connection every couple days. The hard part is, when i'm doing well, there isn't much to talk about sometimes. I had a session with T recently where we kinda just sat there, and because of my non-present mood, we didn't really find anything to talk about. She said that she doesn't think i need to come twice a week because i'm doing well and therefore there is not much going on for us to talk about. Long story short, i got emotional when she said that because i'm not ready to cut it down yet. It is a goal, but i'm not ready for it. So we decided to continue the twice a week thing until i feel ready to challenge myself.

My question to everyone is... I want to form a "plan B". something we can always fall back on if i go in to session in a not-so-good place, feeling dissociated and disconnected, and also have nothing really specific going on to talk about. I want something therapeutic that she and i can do together, that can be kinda ongoing, like a project, that we can always go back to. Something that will help me get grounded, re-focus, and most importantly, leave feeling connected with T. Because on the sessions when there isn't much to talk about i feel disconnected, and therefore i leave feeling upset. So i was wondering if anyone had suggestions????
