Do you engage with T and what does engagement mean too you? What is your style of engagement? Easy? Awkward?

I had to look this up due to a moment of total brain malfunction. So I am going to take engagement to mean participation. Are you involved in your treatment. How etc.
My level of engagement varies. There are weeks where I go in not wanting to be there or with nothing planned. On the whole though, I am working to move forward. Sometimes I bring in lists of topics for th day. Sometimes it's all in my head. I am trying really hard to say things in the moment as they come to mind. A lot of it is still very awkward for me especially when we're talking about the relationship |

My level of engament varies, from not wanting anything to do with therapy to completely doing what is asked to do. I can attend a session and know exactly what I want to talk about to some sessions leaving it completely to,the T what we talk about
I would say it varies from easy to hard depending on what we are talking about. |

I was describing my behaviour around a certain situation recently and T said "so you weren't engaging ". I thought about how that felt and wondered of T feels I engage with her . She said its complicated because I sometimes experience her as my mother but that I do engage alongside that though. She asked me if I felt I do? I said awkwardly so I guess. T replies "awkward is ok!!". That felt nice.

Yes I engage, but it is VERY awkward for me. I can't look him in the eyes, and I won't interject anything if he's on a rant. But I try to put things out there and answer questions.

I honestly have no idea. I can't even comprehend what it would be.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
