Hey folks,
I am in despair and I know that I have to talk to my therapist, but I don't seem to have the courage to do so.
I have been in group therapy for about 6 months now, and I am struggling with all sorts of problems that I cannot discuss there. A. because I feel like there isn't enough room for me to talk about my stuff more, B. because I don't like and/or trust some of the group members.
Two people in the group are very insensitive and like to fight and make sarcastic remarks or laugh about sensitive things, and I really don't want to talk about my feelings in front of them anymore. I just want to get away from them. So therapy feels like a waste of time because I am geting so blocked, but I need help!
I don't feel like I get enough support and I am drowning. I am so embarrassed. I would like to talk to my T alone, but I am SO afraid of him rejecting me when I ask for a change of therapy. I don't want him to tell me that this is all part of the process etc. I am just not strong enough to deal with the group right now.
Has anyone been in a similar situation before? How do I get the courage to solve this?
