I told my therapist about my health issues and my doctors appointment tommorow. She acknolwded my anxiety about it and didn't dismiss my feelings at all. She said shes glad I went to the dentist and am getting things ruled out. She said peeing neon yellow is not a good sign. She asked a bit nervously if I had been tested for covid and I said yeah and the flu about a week ago.
We spent the rest of the time making a meal log. I was going to the grocery store anyways today and she wanted me to get some fruits and vegetables. I suck at eating things before they go bad so I just got a bunch of frozen stuff. But she made a chart for me of my weight loss goal and what I weigh now and she had things in 2 sections. What I eat now and what I should be eating. At the end she took a picture of the notes and emailed them to me.
after looking at the list of stuff I currently eat I do eat pretty badly.
I've never had a therapist talk about what she wanted to and have her own plan for the session. I know it may not be everyones cup of tea to not be in control of their therapy but I find it helpful that she has a plan for each session instead of just saying "its your therapy. What do you want to work on and talk about today?" Then we end up just BSing around the entire 50 minutes without making any progress.
