I am just so frustrated with everything right now. I was just wondering if you ever feel like you aren't accomplishing anything in therapy. I just feel like I am not getting it. I should feel better, I don't. I go in week after after week and we talk about my week. I don't know. I just don't know.

I guess another thing I want to add is that I pay for my therapy sessions 100% out of pocket and they are really expensive! This makes me very motivated to accomplish a lot at each session and to move forward quickly if I can. With my previous counselor, insurance paid 90% of the fee, and I didn't progress as quickly. I wonder if my having to pay for therapy myself makes a difference? I could not see myself sitting in session saying nothing, arms crossed, not being communicative, etc., because all the time I would be thinking, "this is costing so much effing money!"
Of course, I'm happy for all those who get insurance to pay for their therapy, and I wish I were in that situation too, but maybe having to pay helps move me along.
