Thanks for all the comments! I'm glad other people can relate (okay, I'm not really glad anyone feels that way, but at least you can know where I'm coming from). One of the things I end up talking about in therapy is how I sometimes suppress my own needs when I'm around someone else (like I think other people's needs are greater than my own) and then I lose sight of what it was that I really needed in the first place.

I'm doing group therapy now (been going for about 6 weeks) and naturally I feel like I have no personality in the group. Part of it is that I'm incredibly shy, but most of the time when a conversation is going on I can't think of anything I want to contribute. I'm dreading going to it tomorrow because I've had nothing much going on all week. When I don't have an event to report, I don't know what to say. And I know I'm supposed to talk about how I feel in the group, but I don' t know how I feel a lot of times. So it's hard.

Blah.
