It was a nice weekend and today has been a good start to the week. Saturday, I had a lot of trouble sleeping-it could have been because of to much caffeine close to bed (which doesn't usually bother me because I have an evening cup of coffee every day) or my brain giving me a warning that, if I don't start getting enough sleep, hypomanic symptoms are going to kick in again. So far, that has been the only night I've had issues. I just don't know when to get the right amount of sleep in because of working full time, being in grad school, and needing to dedicate time to my boyfriend and others in my life...

I had an interesting counseling session today-she made it clear that this suggestion has nothing to do with our counselor/client relationship and that this would not mean she would stop seeing me, but she wonders if I would benefit from some CBT. She is not trained in this (she's a trauma therapist) so, if I choose to take her up on this, I would have two counselors, a psychiatrist, and a spiritual director. I feel like having all four people could either be beneficial or turn in to to many cooks in the kitchen. I can see why she thinks I could benefit from this though. I also don't know if my insurance company would cover two therapists and there is no way I can see my current counselor and someone else if insurance won't cover it. Some stuff to think about I guess.
