Sometimes therapy is so gamey, you know? Like clearly what you could use is for your therapist to say, "Yes. You're gonna get better." Maybe he doesn't know but you just need him to act like he does! I'm kinda that way too--my partner is great at that kind of thing--she knows I need coaching and positive thinking more than anything. The therapy game is so indirect sometimes it bugs me!
> I asked me Therapist today: "this will get better, right?" He said that is his hope. This worries me...I want him to whole heartly BELIEVE that it will. I think he wants ME to believe it. And right now I'm not sure I do.
