There was a young woman in my group once who actually did hide behind a pillow. At one point she said to another woman, "Sounds like you need a pillow!" This other woman replied, "Yes, I think I do!". And she got one down from the top of the cupboard. After that, several of us held pillows during group. It became a kind of game, passing round the pillows before we started. Then we got tired of it, and she didn't need it any more.

The group was working really well at that point. We can all be proud of that.
