PTSDlovemycats>>> But is that easy for you? Does it make you anxious? My T really encouraged the relaxation and grounding exercises until they just kind of failed miserably...

Part of what's weird to me is that I'll do relaxation exercises by myself or in a group yoga class (so long as I'm not the only one! and usually only if I can be by the wall or the door...) but I just hate trying to do them individually with my therapist. I feel so embarrassed and defensive and self-conscious. Yet, I'm really curious too, and I want to be able to do this stuff because it seems so highly recommended. I think, what is wrong with me that I have such issues with these exercises?? And can I ever "get better" from therapy if these issues still linger??
