ooooooh. you didn't explain that the homework was to come up with goals. if it is one thing i hate more than homework, it is coming up with goals. how unfair of him to set you coming up with goals as homework!
seriously, though (though that was serious enough) i have a lot of sympathy for the absence of goals thing. my current therapist went through a period of wanting me to set goals... but he gave up on that eventually, after he could see how upsetting it was to me.
could you talk to your therapist about why you don't want to have goals?
it might be... that you do have goals. it is just a resistence to formalising them? i mean... i ended up muttering something about wanting to feel happier and be a bit sronger as a person... freak out a little less... be more productive. but explained that i didn't want to 'attack' anything directly. he was cool with that. mayeb your therapist would be okay with something along those lines too?
