My counselling....

[tinkerbell23]

By the way, for those who are interested and who chat to me...

Ive had my second session, going to review if its working after 4....

Realised a few things that may be affecting me already, that i never gave a second thought too!!! So fingers crossed...

Also google "mood juice" for anyone who is in my situation with anxiety and other related things......xxx

big things, small things, doesn't matter. Basically, if you can't handle them alone at the moment, they're big enough to need looking at.

Why so towie? Is it the counsellor? I think its not for everyone, have you discussed next steps?

Jno some things are so stupid i actually hope it isnt...but like i say i think its a few straws that broke the camels back xxx

Nice counsellor - just seem to be making endless lists of things that make me happy/sad/etc etc. I will give it a few more weeks, but do not seem to be getting anywhere. I am paying for this, but have a NHS appointment tomorrow. Will compare the two.

My psychiatrist was going to refer me for CBT but then he said to me "I don't think that we will go down that road, it will only make matters worse." I don't know how things can be worse.

Good luck tinks - talking things over always helps and if it helps you to feel less screwed up then that is brilliant.

I hope it helps us all even in a small wayx

[tinkerbell23]

Interesting...how worse?

The way he said about CBT i dont actually know if its for me...like "here are 5 steps (etc) to make you fell better, do this & that" not sure if that sounds for me. Same to you wolf xx

Still going to attempt hypnotherapy after this if needed, i have 6-8sessions on NHS....

Mabye be good to have both TOWIE, more intense? My hour was up so quickly i was just getting comfy! Xx

Not normally a good idea to have two at the same time

I had over 18 months of counselling and 6 months of group therapy and I still have a long way to go... its taken years for the problems to bed in.... you will not root them out in a few weeks you might not even get a major breakthrough in the first 3 months...
