Your truth sounds similar to my own Rohag...

I have previously been advised to make statement starting "I think" or "I feel"

I don't remember if I asked you about your thoughts re CBT..
or person centred therapy?
or DBT..
or ACT..
or cognitive analytic therapy (CAT)
or any of the others?


Hugs and love to all on the As Is bus

I also wonder about Rohag's thoughts and Thirty shades thoughts re CBT (I think I may have some idea already

New topic, or an old one revisited, not sure.

I find any therapist irl always asks...……… edited.

CBT

And therapists think you have failed when it doesn't help

I am hearing good things about person centred therapy...
A long road with the need for a good therapist....

I have been wondering about EMDR?

This topic has become rather interesting to me.
Insulin resistance and chronic hyperinsulinemia appear to be related, and may be related to more than metabolic health narrowly defined.

What are you reading, Little Turtle? What do you make of it?
