Does your T give you "homework"? Do you do it? What kinds of things do they tell you to do? Does your T push you to do it, or do they treat it more like suggestions? Does your T ask you if you did it? How do you feel about the way your T approaches homework?
My T sometimes gives me things to do outside of sessions, but I basically never do it. She usually doesn't ask me at the next session. One time she said that there's like no pressure to do it, and I don't necessarily have to. I kinda wish she was more pushy with it though. The homework I get is stuff that would be good for me, but I need someone to push me more, otherwise I won't do it. Sometimes it feels like she must not care if I don't actually do it, or like it must not matter that much. The things she gives me as homework have been things like exercise, write down feelings, meditate, try talking to people, etc.
