good question ((((satwe)))! i used to do this in therapy usually by talking about frivolous things and finally my T said, "it is up to you to direct your therapy. you need to take ownership of your therapy. i am not here to probe you with questions to try to find out what's going on with you. you need to bring up the topics that worry or bother you or we are accomplishing nothing in our sessions."
well that certainly put me on notice! i'm appreciative that he said this because he was right. i needed to get serious and utilize my session time for good reasons, jme.

Thanks for this!
