Thanks for the feedback, newtus. I think I understand what your saying. The partial program I was in was very focused on PTSD. That didn't apply to me, really. I was there for depression. In my case, I really liked the talking. There was plenty of that. Just about everyone had PTSD and they talked a lot about the causes. Maybe I should give the presiding pdoc more credit for picking out patients who were into what she was doing. We all seemed real glad to be there. I could see where it could totally get on your nerves from what you say.

I see people at the PSR place that I went to who seem so glad to be there. I mean they really seem to be so grateful and happy with the program. Some have been there for months and months, even longer. There is a lot to do there. Games, exercise, crafts. None of that interests me. I'ld rather hear people talk all day long. Goes to show - one person's heaven is another person's heck.
