Thanks, everyone. Yes, my sn is an Ani reference, thiswayout!

I'm sure my emotions are influencing my reaction and evaluation of interactions but I also feel like she is not open to talking about feelings, only focusng on having fewer negative thoughts and more neutral and positive ones. Is this just a CBT thing?

I liked this at first, but I'm feeling like the negation of detail and nuance is intensifying in sessions and also that maybe I do need to talk more about my feelings and experiences, even though I thought the problem before was too much rumination. I just feel like with my T's approach, all I'm doing is avoiding feelings, emotions, and thoughts instead of dealing with them--which is bound to backfire spectacularly at some point...I'm assuming. Then again, who knows. I hate that I'm questioning everything now.
