Last week I went to T feeling stressed and felt better. This week I tried to continue in the same vein, was ok during the session, but am now in a panic. There are too many competing issues in my life at the moment, they all play off each other, and I'm having trouble prioritizing what I need to do right now. I've been in this confusing place before - I recognize it. Which means I've gotten through it before, so I should find that comforting. I'm sure I should talk about this in T, but if I ever went in there and told him ALL of the things I'm worried about I think he would fall over and I would have laryngitis.

the idea to make a list and decide wnat is most important now sounds very good. On the other hand, you could go to t and tell everything what's on your mind, I'm sure t will be ok with that, grab some tea to prevent the laryngitis, lol. Ramble if you need to, it can result in a very productive t session.

I am finding, too, that there are so many issues to address...some intertwined with each other...So, I am going to prioritize the list and then ask him to review the list and see if he agrees with my prioritization. Then, we'll get to work! How often do you see your T? I have weekly appointments but also group therapy with him each week as well. I wonder if I will need to add a 2nd individual appointment with him in a week sometimes....but then I think, perhaps it's best to keep it at once a week so that I can process my feelings about certain things. It would be too overwhelming for ME to deal with everything at once.

could this sound like a plan?
make a list reel off the list to yr T then T will know what the issues are and a side benefit, you will have laryngitis and T will have to talk for the rest of the hour, lol, as you prioritize together  give T the list for future reference ? |
