My T suggested that perhaps I'm happy and I don't know it...
Is this even possible? Has anyone's T ever said something similar? I see her again Mon, so I will be asking her for more info on this, but it seems unlikely that I'd feel depressed and truly be happy.
She also suggested that I've just not made a commitment to being happy. I don't know what that means either. I thought my learning to live without self destructive coping skills like drinking was a commitment to happiness, or something. But apparently not.
Any insight? I've been thinking about these issues for a while now since this week's appt. was cancelled due to the holiday, and I've made no real headway. Thanks!
