Yes Salmon77, the lack of small talk really bugs me. Any tips on how to get over it or make it feel less awkward? I wasn’t aware of this dynamic before starting therapy recently, and I just dread going now because I know I’ll be expected to talk right away and I never feel ready. How long did it take you to get used to it? It’s been 3 months for me.
