Hi!

I just started CBT and I am very enthusiastically excited for it. I have a great deal of hope invested in it and am ready to get down to work.

As my therapist explained to me during my assessment, one needs to be ready. It takes a great deal of work and one must be prepared to challenge themself emotionally. I've had 2 sessions and I can tell I have really been challenged.

Ex, one of my activities on my homework is to approach a nursing home and volunteer to spend time (play cards maybe) with some seniors.

I am really anxious about this. I do not know if I can do it (I'd rather not) but I have a week to get up the gumption.
