Group session tomorrow

Posted by cubic_me on February 22, 2005, at 16:49:04

For those long-suffering people who know the saga about me and group therapy, I just wanted to let you know what was going on.

I haven't had a session since the one where I felt misunderstood and alone. Some of you said that I should leave straight away, and maybe I should, but I will go back tomorrow and see how it goes. I've thought about it quite a bit and figured that if I was talking about feeling this way with an individual T you would all tell me to talk it through at my next session, so I'll try that with the group.

I feel attached to the people in this group, but it's not doing me any good. It feel a bit like having an abusive husband - not that they are abusive, but more the turmoil inside between wanting to leave and wanting to stay.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Perhaps you should just lay your dilema out for the group. Be as honest as you can about how you feel and have felt since the last session. This might just be the way to get to one side of the line or the other. If you find yourself fully committed, then perhaps you will get more out of the group.

Just a thought. I'm glad you are going to let us know.

I'm proud of you. I'm a huge fan of fighting for relationship. I hope the group will respond positively, but in either case it'll give you a good feeling to know you've done all you can.
