I guess I am feeling pretty trapped and overwhelmed by the whole therapy thing... Maybe this is an indication I should quit. ya think?
actually, I think this is the exact wrong time to quit. For me, those times when I feel overwhelmed are sometimes when I am on the brink of a breakthrough of some kind. Change is hard, and moving from one stage of recovery to the next can be painful.

That said, I have at times felt so scrutinized, so ANALYZED, that I freeze up. When I read what you posted about the "meaning" behind being late/early for appts, etc it reminded me of that feeling. When I think too much about how every action, every word, every expression being deconstructed for it's TRUE meaning in the mind of my T, it makes me freeze like a deer in the headlights.
