Do you ever leave therapy feeling worse than before? I think my T is trying out tough love on me and I hate it. I feel so discouraged. I already have a hard time talking in therapy and she really got on to me about that today. She also talked about how stubborn I am being- refusing to give up my ED. I know she is right BUT I also don't know where to begin. I’ve had this ED for 15 years and its my whole identity. T told me “ you have no life because you don’t go do anything, you don't spend time with other people because all you do is isolate and restrict” which makes me feel like a LOSER and makes me angry, partly because I hate someone telling me I have no life, and partly because she is right. I feel like someone kicked me in the stomach, i don’t want to go back.
