It would be useful to talk to your T about your deeming worse as things go on and they will be able to help you unpick that. If you think there's something your T does that drives you feeling worse, it's worth feeding that back. In the meantime maybe do some relaxation exercises or journaling to help soothe yourself.

Thanks for the reply! I definitely feel like that's what has happened (the layer of skin thing) and it has just been unfortunate that it has happened at the same time as T being away and all this other family stuff that's been going on. I think it is important for to define what exactly feeling "worse" means to me because that will lead me into figuring out what will make me feel better I think.
