What Are You Working On?

We are working on my depression and weight loss using cbt and hypnosis.
I'm sure my T is also working on some other things that I'm not aware of.lol

Now we're working on anxiety and worry control. Also relaxation techniques. Trying to get over my fear of going into a job interview. The goal is for me to at least be able to go in and attend an interview, without breaking down beforehand and running out.

To elaborate on my previous post, we are working on:
- Believing my T is willing to listen to me
- Believing it's okay to talk to my T
- Asking for what I want
- Believing myself

group t - anxiety
regular t - when i get a new one - trauma

T says he is trying to help me to start to recognize what I am feeling and stay with that feeling just a little more each time......

Anxiety is the main picture of why I'm there... but working on T wanting me to try to make my life more "messy" since I schedule everything. ex. Have to be home at x time to do y for z amount of time so i can leave at q time and then spend r time with s person for t time. Ridiculous.

But I really want to work on the fact that I feel like I have no empathy for others, and that it's just "pretend" empathy. But then I also want to work on lots of other things.

50 minutes is just not long enough.

Eating Disorder (discovering my mother is the catalyst in this)
Depression
Self-esteem

Working on grounding and being mindful of surroundings since I tend to disassociate in therapy when topics get brought up and breathing techniques. She is still in the diagnostic stage since she really hasn't been able to get some answers to her questions since I tend to leave the room. Poor therapist!

Survival

Mindfulness and equinimity. Trying to remain in scary social situations and wait out the anxiety.

ED, self-esteem, PTSD, building trust. Also depression.

I've only seen my new therapist for six or seven weeks, so I'm still getting to know him. I work slow.

We're working on helping me cope with a partner's recent brain injury and both the practical and emotional fallout from that. My father died within the past year, and that has stirred up a lot of childhood things. We're still circling around the edges of it, but I can tell that shame is going to be a big topic for therapy this time around.

Worry & anxiety

Anxiety and negative thoughts towards life and myself

In my sessions, T and I are working on me not feeling the need to schedule every single aspect of my life. I.E. needing to be home by this time, to spend this amount of time with these people, so that i can leave at this time, to spend this amount of time with these other people.

Really, that seems absolutely ridiculous. -_-
