Hello everyone, I'm new here and just finished some 4 sessions of short term counselling for anxiety. I feel like I've been opened up on the operating table with all my inner workings spilled out and now left to gather everything up and sew myself together. What a feeling. I need to go deeper and resolve this but can't do any more counselling because my counselling benefits have ended. I miss my counsellor too and don't want to work with anyone else (stamping my foot like my 6 year old does). What a big pain this whole therapy thing is. First I resist, then I get hooked then I'm bumped off. What kind of a relationship is that?! Is this a pretty normal reaction those out there who have been through this or are going through it? And how long does this last?
