>> In the end, they always end up being DIY coping strategies. I think that's just the reality of the situation.
I didn't mean that, I meant that the T seemed to be asking LostinTermination to DIY, figure out her own strategies - I don't think that is the way it's supposed to go. I for one wouldn't know where to start, that's one reason I'm in therapy!

Ideally, the therapist and the client would work together to come up with some stuff, but it's us that has to do them to make our lives better.
yes but this isn't DIY, it's together.

I've been there and this is tough stuff to be sure, but no one but us can make these strategies work.
Agreed. But first they have to be identified!
