I have been like this too. What I finally told my T last week was this: "I cannot try to be your favorite, unburdensome patient and get well as the same time. They are mutually exclusive." He seemed thrilled! Compliance to their wishes isn't going to get us well. We have to be active participants . . . and vocal ones, too.

Please do as I say, not as I do. :)

This is, of course, much harder than it sounds. Maybe you should resist the CBT treatment. Tell them what you think would really be helpful, and I'm sure it will be taken into consideration.

Don't give up, OK?
