Hey, thanks for asking! Individual didn't go as well as I'd hoped, and I realized afterward that I'm actively trying not to talk about the group in individual. I think I'm afraid to let my therapist know my impressions of everyone because he'll try to facilitate my engaging with people more than I'm doing. Which is the POINT of course, except that I'm afraid of trying to interact.. I realized afterward that I was fighting with him. It's subtle as hell, but I shifted the conversation away from group several times or else I gave responses that I never elaborated on at all. It's like I actively don't want to give him anything to work with. Why am I suddenly being so ornery in therapy!? :-D
I also don't want individual therapy to turn into group processing time, but that's less worrisome to me.
