No fair running from the hard stuff by using the "don't have time for therapy" and DBT excuses.
Think good things are going to happen tomorrow! They are as likely as bad stuff; especially if they are what you prepare for. T's going away are opportunities to try stuff out; you get to try what DBT you have learned out and practice on real world stuff. Look Ma, no hands!  |
Perna, that's not fair!! I packed my book so I wouldn't forget it. I AM working with it. I already read all the pages for the weeks I'll be away, but of course I'll reread it all. I don't want to play one T against another. I honestly want help. I'd never miss a session unless I were dying.
I just don't want to feel worse after my session. My thinking about talking to DBT leader about my T is that she could maybe actually help me. I'm supposed to call her during my trip so I'll see what happens. Yes, good things will happen in my session. I hope so. Right now I have an upset stomach from my stress about packing, etc.
