In reply to Feeling Blue - rambling, posted by DaisyM on November 15, 2003, at 17:24:28
I think that therapy makes me lonely a lot because I can be somewhat (wish I could be more!!) honest with him but not with my boyfriend. So, I am being honest with someone one hour a week. And then I leave the office and go back to feeling the same again. So, I just have this cycle of opening up and then shutting my feelings down for a while all over agian. I'm not sure if this is the case with you, but maybe you feel like you are missing this open and honest relaitionship from your personal life?
What are you letting yourself think about that is making you feel down? Is it helping you deal with things that you need to, or is it just bringing you down?
If you are unsure of where to go in therapy maybe you should discuss this with your therapist. Let him/her know that you feel that you are running in circles and not accomplishing anyhting. Also, that you are having self defeating thoughts that aren't helpful.
I'm sorry you are feeling blue. You have always been so very helpful to me sweetheart. I just know in my heart that you are such a great and wonderful person and I wish you weren't feeling blue ever again in your life. I wish I could take anything bad that has or ever will happen to you away and only bring good and joyfull things to your life. I know that sometimes in therapy we all feel that we are talking in circles but sometimes maybe we need to, to get things accomplished. Maybe it is needed to kind of make us realize our own patterns of actions. I wish you only the best hun. I hope you have a great day tommorrow, full of hugs and kisses from children and puppies.
