Thank you for all your insight I have a question. I was seeing my therapist once a week, and it happened to be on a Saturday. So in genaral I would keep track of my problems all week and then when I got to my therapist I would dump one of them on her instead of dealing with it on my own when the problems occured. I wasn't thinking about my concerns or problem solving on my own, so I was basically just putting it all out of my mind until Saturday. See, in my head I imagine my different problems in seperate glass jars with tight closed lids on a shelf, and when I am ready to deal with that particular problem I take the jar down and face the problem. I just don't know if this is working for me anymore because it's always me who decides when I will confront and work threw a problem, which is on Saturday. But, I'm finding life can push heartache, and aggrivation on you so fast sometimes that you don't have a choice, and you have to face it all and deal with it weather you are mentally ready to handle it or not. Did I expect too much from my therapist? What should I do different?
