Okay I'm just having a great week with therapy. The group session was good last night. And today's individual session was really great.

As ambivalent as I've been about group, I'm actually sad that I won't be going back for a month (my therapist is away next week and then I'm away the following 2 weeks). I found it really easy to talk last night. Of course there are 2 people in the group who always fight with one another. When either one or the other is gone, I find it easier to talk. I guess I hate conflict. But anyway, I felt really glad that I'd participated. I felt sad at the end that I'd be away for a while.

Individual was great though I think I looked at my lap 90% of the time. He was asking me some hard stuff, but it was a great conversation. Some of it even humorous despite the seriousness of the topics.

I love it when I go away feeling good afterward.

Too bad I have to get some work done now (ugh). I'd much rather talk on here.

Sidony,

That is great news. I am so pleased for you and hope I can report the same later tonite!
I have never attended group, so I don't have a reference for the experience but I bet it felt good to have one of those bickering people absent!

Great therapy week

You're two for two this week, sidony. Good for you. Maybe you should go buy a lottery ticket. Great therapy week

I remember when you just did not want to go to group therapy, didn't see the point, hated it, etc. Now you sometimes like it! I love reading the development of these stories over the weeks and months.

Great therapy week I sure do go back and forth on this one. Group is hard I'll say that. It'll probably be months before I can say whether it's really helping me or not, but sometimes I feel good about it.

Hm, I guess I just decided I'll stick around for months. Great therapy week It's interesting that's for sure. There will probably be more posts about me hating it. But I'll keep going with it for a while yet and see what happens.

P.S. Pink, my eye is doing better! I got a good report from the eye doc 2 days ago! Great therapy week
