I've been in a process group for about a year - we meet 3 times a month. I've been working on a lot of relationship issues, but I'm struggling with one and am having trouble with finding insight into my feelings. I thought this might be a good place to see if people have any thoughts about why these feelings could be coming up.
Basically, I get triggered and annoyed when group members complain about things that I myself struggle with (examples, disordered eating, stress, depression) I feel and express empathy, but when they go on and on and don't seem to want to accept help or change, I get really bothered. I have brought this up in group and I haven't really found any answers. My background (childhood) was pretty extreme compared to others in the group (severe abuse/neglect) and I think that's part of it. Sometimes I feel like if I can face my problems and try to do something about it, why can't others people who have been through way less (they don't seem to have as many roadblocks as I have) Does anyone ever get annoyed when others complain about things they have been through? Any thoughts on why this could be coming up and how I might address the feelings?
