My own therapist thinks I might be a bit intimidating to the other group members. Not because I'm scary or anything but because I'm prety psychologically sophisticated - meaning I have my own insights and read a lot. So perhaps any kind of group would present the same challenges.
I think it has turned into individual therapy with others watching in some ways. There have been times when we all chime in about a topic, but it seems lately that has been rare. It is a survivor's group so in theory it shouldn't matter that we are all pretty different - it is about how the abuse continues to haunt our lives. Somehow we keep getting away from this.
I'm sorry you had a bad experience. Did you ever try again?
