I love this place. Most of my therapy issues are to do with my feelings for T, and for that, PC is the best place on earth
But sometimes, my issues are specific (or at least feel specific) to the model of therapy I'm doing, and it can get really lonely. In schema therapy right now I feel like a tiny boat out on open water, knocked every which way by the wind, and I guess I want to hear that this is a normal phase (even a positive development?) and it passes...
I've got books on ST, but they're written for Ts not clients. when I was in a similar situation with DBT, I started a blog and made some connections with other clients that way. But I feel too weary to do it all over again for ST.
Do you get lonely in therapy with 'model specific' issues? What do you?
PS Funny story. I tried searching for 'schema therapy' on PC, but in order to 'prove I'm human' I had to know who the second president of the United States was. I don't. So I don't get my search! I came here to check I was 'normal' and I'm leaving here with my very human-ness called into question!
