groupT called me today to see how I am and to talk to me about whether I am going to group tomorrow. She asked me if I have had any contact with T recently (in the last 24 hrs), so I told her about the hang-up situation, both of us thinking the other had hung up.

I told her too about the email I got from T and how I am unsure about whether I'm going to see T on Monday or not. Group T encouraged me to come to group tomorrow to practice the DBT skill of Cope Ahead. Basically, to talk about the situation with T and to plan how I want things to go on Monday and what skills to use, etc. I agreed that it would be beneficial to me to know that, if I decide to see T on Monday, I will be going in as skillfully as possible.

I told group T that I would come tomorrow, and we talked briefly about the situation with M, the only other regular group member at this time. Group T agrees that it is not ideal for me, or anyone, to be in a group of only 2 people. but she said that there is a DBT skills group ending this month and that some of those people will be invited to join this group. (the group I am in is for people who have completed the usual 1-yr skills training group).

Anyway. That's the situation. I'm not positive I will go to group tomorrow, but I probably will. It's over an hour each way to drive from my home to Ts office, so it is sort of a hardship. I don't know about seeing T on Monday yet, but I do know that every other time I have thought I wasn't going to my next session I have ended up changing my mind by the time the session rolls around.
