My T, whom I've only just started seeing, was big on having me pick out goals. I said "I want to accept living here". But I'm assuming he considers that too big. Then I said "I want to accept living here and get back off meds". Which he doesn't agree with, but has gone with that as I'm quite adament about it. haha.

He's also decided already to not really focus on my self-management of my bipolar, because I already have some good strategies. Instead he wants me to start breaking down all my "rules" that I live my life by. So that I guess is the goal or something right now. He decided that my self-esteem is what needs worked on... so... that's the focus.

I don't think there's an issue with not having a specific goal in mind for yourself.
