My psychologist helped me through the rough time of year that I have.....then we were wondering what to work on....do I need to actually see T while ok except when things trigger or I have stresses that come up.
She actually suggested that I join the DBT group which I started going to the end of January....right after the worst time of the year ended. (between September/October & January). Well, going to DBT & doing the diary cards & tracking lack of eating & sleeping along with all the other stressers that I am experiencing because I have them written down now.....we have so very much to work on every 2 weeks when I see her. Never imagined that I would have that much to actually work on with my psychologist.
Do you have access to a DBT group through your T? That might really help teach you the skills that you can use to deal with the distress you are going through & also learn to pull together your emotional mind with your rational mind to come up with the wise thinking for situations you end up in. Between the group & working on the details with my psychologist, I have never experienced more successful therapy before.
Good thing to see your T with all you have going on with the stress at work, your weight loss & all the other things going on......it's important to be able to have T to talk through what you are feeling.
