Well that was a fast four weeks. Each Monday afternoon I have been leaving work early to go for a therapy session with psychologist. It is really hard work, I seem to be so out of touch with my thoughts and feelings. The last few weeks I have been shown a few different “awareness” and “mindfulness” exercises. Instead of continually struggling with negative and unhelpful thoughts this teaches you to accept them, by observing and defusing from them instead of avoiding them. The hardest part of the sessions has been trying to focus on what I’m thinking/feeling, it was worse than trying to extract teeth! I am to practise the exercises and return in a month to see how far I’ve progressed.
