Today was great, I was relieved that it was what I expected. The same excellent guidence of the leaders, the clear ground rules to make GT a safe place to be. It does feel a bit strange that as I jumping back in after some intensive personal work.

I am exhusted because my personal goal is to be visiable, this is hard work for me but to learn to be assertive means I have to see myself as having value and being able to comunicate what I think and harder for me what I feel.

These two weeks are Assertiveness 1, and we are the first group to have the extra time for self care added on. That why the longer time, there is a break and then we finish with the self care exercise.

Today was stretching; selfcare and coping strategies were the specific topic of a previous group, this is a reminder for us to keep on going with self care, mindfulness, and all the good things that help to us to cope with life.

The hospital day treatment program is evolving, and I am grateful, to be a patient.
