Taking Therapy To A New Level...

[Indra]

Today my T suggested that starting this fall we would go into a new phase of sessions. I can´t remember the name but the structure seems similar to how the trauma diaries on this forum.

I hadn't seen my T in a couple of weeks since her schedule had clashed several times. This has happened so many times that I was seriously starting to try to find help elsewhere. In a way I think she knew how I felt because that´s when she brought up the subject of taking sessions to the next stage.

According to her I am and have been to fragile to start CBT but on the other hand I have done a lot of work on my own where I've reached a point of no return.

She is going to see if she can arrange her schedule to take me on for this. It's suppose to take 14 weeks.

My appointment was this morning and all day I have felt SO weird. Completely drained. My heart is racing and my breath shallow and my body feel like it weighs a ton.

I don´t remember having this reaction before? Anyone who has experienced anything similar?

Hi Indra, I always feel anxous and weird before a session. For me this starts at least a day or so before. We've been doing some CBT stuff and I would recomend it, particularly if you've gone as far as you can on your own.

We've recently started on something new, it's really challenging and I didn't realise how important my relationship with her would be.

I note that your sessions haven't been regular and that you were thinking of looking elsewhere. It may not be my place to say so but this doesn't seem like a great start? How about seeing if you can get some regularity into your sessions before starting something new?

Hope it goes well

It's very hard to persevere when feeling lousy and jumping out of a plane without a parachute.
