I appreciate all the responses I've gotten on here. I went to group therapy again tonight. It's definitely weird being with my therapist's other clients, but I'm getting used to it.

There was a lot of talk about being new to the group, and I talked about how I appreciated the people who are trying to help me. I think I'll keep a note of how I was freaked out before by the girl saying she loved the therapist (not that I'd really forget). Maybe one day when I'm a more "advanced" member of the group I can talk about that (if it seems like a good idea then). In the meantime, I'll stick with subjects I'm capable of handling.

I don't know if I feel like I have much in common with the other members of the group (certainly we have very different lives), but that's not so bad. They're nice. I probably would like to meet with them socially (like in the book Alexandra mentioned), but that's not allowed in my group (we're not supposed to socialize outside of the group). I understand that as it leaves all interaction open to be used as subjects in therapy.

I spent the first half of group being extremely uncomfortable. Then I sort of got engaged toward the end. In the beginning I always feel like I have nothing to say. After a while I participate though. I'm betting my therapist would like me to give him more to work with, but he'll have to wait. I can jump into serious discussion in individual therapy, but in the group I don't have a clue where to begin. Some of the subjects seem really trivial, but they lead to discussion about how people are interacting. It's interesting. I guess I'll try to start talking about it some more in individual therapy too. Will just see how it goes.....

Thanks everyone!
