Thanks. I don't know if my therapist is a CBT. She said I was selfish when I was explaining how I felt when I have a lot of anxiety. Because I was opening up and telling her exactly how I feel when I get anxious she told me I'm too stuck in my own head,I don't care about anyone else,and that I'm selfish. I never thought that was true and now I always put myself down for it and question myself. I do care about other people and I have been told I have a big heart but because I opened up to her and told her I would rather avoid people than have to face my anxiety that's what she said. I don't think she understand what it feels like to have anxiety. I don't think she specializes in that either and my old T did.
Your situation sounds so similar to mine with friends moving and everything else. I did feel that way with my T but it got worse when he moved.
I do email my old T but it's only every 3-4 months. I'm not sure if he would be open to skype. I would love to ask him but I would be afraid that it would push him away even more since therapy with me isn't his job anymore. I emailed him a couple days ago but he hasn't gotten back to me and my mind keeps going everywhere thinking he may not ever get back to me. I'm always worried that will happen one day.
