Brassic - so sorry you felt bad after today's session?- do you think it's because there's more to come - and more intensive by the sounds of it? Or was it questions you were asked but not comfortable answering?
My year of counselling was quite a while ago now, but I do remember it did get worse before it got better. Throughout the first few months I was binging and boozing my head off but I think this was almost expected from me at the start of the sessions while I worked through reasons why I was doing it.
I don't actually think mine were CBT as I wasn't exactly given alternative ways to deal with things, more given a chance to talk about what I was feeling and why I might be using alcohol and food to deal with things.
You're only human to feel scared about next week . I wish I could be more constructive and helpful but even though it will definitely be difficult, I'm sure it won't be as difficult as you think...it always helps me to think about what I want the end result to be - it somehow makes the process of getting there a little easier...
Hope everyone else is well?
Dilly I bought that redbush tea you mentioned and it's lovely stuff!
Hope you get things sorted at school tomorrow - it must be horrid to feel helpless - I reckon you're doing the right thing seeing the head if it's upset your DD.
I'm on night 2 sober . Can't decide whether I'm feeling together about it or not! Saw a trailer for the apprentice tomorrow and an image of a glass of wine popped into my head - that's the kind of trigger I've got to try and break.
On that note I'm off to bed to try and sleep - this is the worst point of the night for me.
Take care everyone
