effort

i have therapy again tomorrow.
normally i go every 2 or 3 weeks, but this time it's the next week.

i shouldn't have agreed to that.

not only will it be another day of not working out (3 in a row if i don't do it tonight. blech), i'm just so emotionally tired and drained right now.


i got my workbooks from rogers out last night and started working on part 2 since i left there before i ever got a chance to do it.
it's interesting, i guess. i hadn't really done CBT stuff prior to going there.

thinking shouldn't take so much effort, though.

wishful thinking.

I hold the same wish. That thinking wouldn't be so exhausting at times. Take care.

Does Roger's provide the workbooks since you are were a patient there? What kinds of things are in there?

It's just a packet of papers that we put it the binder they gave us when we get there.

Part 1 we had to fill out and present in group before we could move up in privilages but part 2 we did on our own.

it just goes through the different ways the ED affects your life, and you have to write how its affected you, and how it's related to depression, styles of thinking, what it's like to begin treatment.
part 2 is more thought restructuring and how different situations could be handled differently. i dont remember everything.

i wasn't able to present part 1 in group until near the end of me being there, so by the time i got part 2 i didnt really have any time to look at it there.
