Thanks for the welcome and the good feedback.

Rapunzel-Thanks, I'm glad I found this forum too.

Biplol-yes, it is hard to change strategy after seeing the same T for so long. (Although after having a few bad T'S, I wouldn't "trade him in" just yet!)

Alex K- Yeah, that would've been a great comeback but I was too angry at the moment. He knows I'm lonely so that seems like the most hurtful thing anyone could say to me.
It is a catch 22- if I am feeling lousy it is hard to get out there more, but he believes I would feel better if I "just do it" in terms of reaching out more.

Jon B- It could be a problem that we don't define goals more often in therapy. However, I am not great with openly discussing goals because to put it all out there seems overwhelming and impossible. I always seem to feel like "I can't get there from here". So I think my T avoids it too because it just ends in "I can't do this"

i appreciate everyone's thoughts. Wish me luck this week!
