Great guest!
After I understood what therapy was, I enjoyed it a lot.
I had one therapist, because luckily the first one was a great fit for me. I liked her and respected her.
I went for depression prevention and to work on catastrophic thinking. During therapy I came to work on emotional eating and I don’t do it anymore. I learned to use other tools for the inner tension I used to ease with emotional eating.
Also it was always great to tell her something I thought was a catastrophe and her not being impressed at all or yelling : this is the worst thing I ever heard in my life and running away. She didn’t even run away once during our sessions.
I’m not on social media a lot. I must admit, I cut way back, I realized that it made my mood go down, because of course, it wants me to be angry all the time. Being here is probably the most internet thing I do, and it’s good. I love the community here and it feels save. I will never forget how I was once targeted and people all were so nice and supportive to me here. It’s a great community.
