Do you journal? There are some great journals out there for helping self discovery. I am talking about the ones that have questions in them. I had a therapist that wanted me to journal my feelings right after t and during my worst moments.

Personally, I journal everything - dreams, thoughts, to-do lists, feelings, etc. I bring my dreams and feelings into to t. I guess you can say I make my own homework up. My new therapist is very gentle. She will give me a book, VHS tape, or a suggestion. It's up to me what do with it.

I use to have therapists that gave a lot of homework. I found that I tended to rebel about it. If I was avoiding something, it just wouldn't happen.

You can draw pictures, make things or just bring in your journal as a form of homework. Getting creative is really good for self discovery. I know that I have had powerful dreams after painting a pictures for therapy.
