PC buddies,
You are all so helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you. I am going to try out this group next week and we'll see where it goes. I am both curious and nervous. I was able to talk it through with T this morning and he acknowledged my fears and validated them and soothed me. I will see him individually each week as well. Soooooo I will let you know how it goes! YIKES

f you don't go, you may miss out on a potentially helpful healing tool.

Luce, that is exactly why I
will go. I want the chance for greater healing.

Maybe it would be whole separate kind of relationship that adds even more depth and dimension.

Echoes--How astute! This is exactly what T said today during my individual session. He was preparing me for the group and I told him about my fear of sharing him and he said that in group his role would be different and I still would have my individual session.

Kiya--yes I am worried about the toll they will take but craving the healing.

I'm scared I'll feel lost in the crowd.

Tree--EXACTLY!!! But T thinks I will be okay so we'll give it a go. It starts next Monday.
Eileen--I'm sorry group was so hard for you. T told me that if I feel that way I can quit and he won't be upset in any way.

your focus is more on the other members than the therapist

Farmergirl--that is what T said today, when he told me it would be different in group. He said his role would be less prominent than it is in session.
