sidony, that is great individual therapy was so helpful.

RE group: it sounds like you have a ton of stressors in your life right now. Group has always been a stressor for you but now you have all this other stuff too. When I get too much stress in my life, I try to remove what is not absolutely essential, to decrease the stress level. Then I take care of the most pressing stuff, and can then let the not so urgent stressors back into my life, if I choose. In otherwords, how about dropping group therapy for the time being, until you get some of your other stuff (i.e. the job) taken care of? You just don't need extra stress right now. Could you explain to the group that you will be taking a temporary leave to deal with some problems, but you hope to rejoin them as soon as possible in the future?

Good luck with this.
