Motivation
-
This sounds like it's something that could help me. I got exhausted going over and over the past.
-
Thanks, nessa. I stopped going to therapy yesterday. I will take a break fro it and then hopefully find someone more suited to me.
-
That's a very nice way to see your relationship with your Sister. I could probably take something from it. I haven't seen in my Sister in quite a while now. I'm scared to see her but I'm not quite sure why.
-
I wish I had someone I could ask for advice about this. No one I know has ever had therapy.
-
I have started to get anxious (racing mind etc.) prior to my therapy sessions. I don't know what to do. I hate this feeling. I just want to back away from anything that causes it.
-
I think I overreacted. We made another time. We went to the park with two of her kids. It was lovely. I really enjoyed myself. She's a very busy person - she has three kids and she owns and runs a supermarket. I had been so nervous leading up to the original time that it was like a waste of everything.
-
My therapist made me make a time to see my cousin. I set it all up a couple of weeks ago on facebook and I messaged her to confirm it today and she's forgotten and made other plans. I'm that forgettable and that much of a failure that people even forget plans I've made with them.
-
Yesterday was better. I went with something to talk about. There were hardly any awkward silences.
-
So it would be ok to take in a list or something and refer to it during sessions? I struggle to remember everything I've been thinking about.
-
Does anyone have any tips on opening up? I have my next therapy session tomorrow and I'm worried about it. I'm never quite sure what to talk about and how to start talking about it.
-
That's a good idea. I could try that. Thank you.
-
I find to hard to talk about myself and open up. Last week she told me that it felt like I went to her for answers. She doesn't really give me ways to deal with things. It's very awkward now. Sometimes there silence and it's very awkward.
-
I have had 9 sessions with my therapist (7 solo ones, 1 with my Mum & another with my Dad). It started off good but has become really awkward. I don't know what I should say. She doesn't really prompt me with a lot of questions. Today we talked about her moving house for example. I don't know what I should do? I'm not even sure what's really supposed to happen in therapy. It's confusing right now.
