Sometimes I can hold on to good feelings from therapy--not always. Here are a couple of things I do. I have a transitional object--something I take with me to therapy (currently it is a lavender water bottle) and I hold it during therapy. Later, at home, I hold it again and try to remember what it felt like. Another trick is if your therapist says something helpful or nice about you, tell someone. If you have no one to tell, write it here on the forum. Then other people will know this nice thing your therapist said and they can remind and reinforce when you start to forget and feel down. Another way is to share a brief passage from a book that is meaningful to you; the therapist might ask you why you think it is meaningful. This can lead to good discussion which you can remember every time you read the passage at home or at work. Also, sometimes i have fantasies (like daydreams) that my therapist goes with me to run errands. I play really fun music and pretend my therapist is right there in the passenger seat, singing along with me and noticing how cleaver I might be. Final suggestion: I love to mix CD's. I make a mix specifically for my therapist. It could be on a theme, like, "groovy songs"; "songs that cheer me up" "songs for inspiration" and then give it to the therapist. Later you can visualize the therapist listening to it and what enjoyment he or she gets out of it; you can play a copy for yourself and picture how each song would affect your therapist. Those are some of my strategies for coping and sustaining through the time in between sessions. Good luck!
