I have been in therapy a little over a year and I feel the same way. Is therapy helping or hurting me? I question that a lot. But I realize that I am not okay. I have a choice. I can continue living my life and trying to hide my emotions and feelings from everyone, or I can choose to work on them and find better ways to cope and live a happier, more successful life.
I think they need a '
recovery' room for us to go into after our sessions. A room where we can
melt down/calm down after being in a session!
