I had therapy today, and I am uncertain how I feel about this new therapist. It was only the second session. She is extremely structured and wants me to start a therapy journal where I don't just write down my thoughts, but do homework. She kept asking me to come up with positive thoughts, but she doesn't understand that it is hard to do that when all you are thinking is negative all the time and for a prolonged period of time. She also observed that my affect is very flat (which it is lately). She sits behind a big desk, rather than in a chair across from me. Usually in the beginning, I respond better to someone that listens more (initially) instead of being so quick to come up with "solutions" that aren't actually solutions for someone who is in an episode and is just starting therapy again for the first time in a long time. Just felt like letting this out. Not sure whether I should find a new T or give this one a chance. I know she means well and is trying to give me a push, but I just wish someone would listen and try to understand.
