Hi: Well here I am sitting in the sweatshirt that I wear to cover my "good" clothes when I eat supper!!! I'm not kidding, I go further than a bib, Tamara!!! And wearing white to eat out...forget it, way too stressful! Is this something most Babblers have in common???
Anyway, Rain, I feel for you in your dilemma. It sounds like you feel like a failure, for this therapy relationship not working out. You aren't!
Maybe you could look at it more as period of self-discovery, to find out what you need from a therapist and what kind of therapy, and from whom?
And I don't think you are a chicken to cancel the app't. I think that was SMART! It buys you some time to really think about it and research different therapies etc.
Can you write your ONE THING down, and when you do eventually find a therapist, hand the paper over, so you don't have to spend a lot of time giving hints and feeling frustrated?
I think you are pretty brave to even start the therapy process. I've been thinking about it, but I feel too reluctant....no, AFRAID, to do anything about it.
Best wishes,
Jas
