2021-09-21 22:06:20 +0000 UTCQ16. 01.25 - I've been in therapy and that has been helpful, but I'm having a hard time starting blogging again and offering workshops. Besides therapy and journaling, what can I do to help rebuild my confidence and overcome what I've gone through? Q17. 11.11 - Does it make any sense that if I suspect or feel that anyone is trying to control my emotions, like a therapist for example, I shut down and freeze. If it's a very short term therapy, that might not last long enough to really dig deep into the problem, what would you suggest? But most of all, is it normal? Q18. 18.47 - What you know about psychedelic drug therapy? Q19. 24.40 - Can you speak a ldome on the differences and similarities of CBT and ACT? And maybe mixed with a little touch of exposure therapy or when that is used within the ACT? Q20. 28.52 - Last month I talked about my new job and my anxiety going through the roof. While I slowly feel like I'm somewhat settling down in my new position, my anxiety is still extremely high. I haven't been on sick leave due to my mental health before. Do you have any advice on how to accept taking this time and on how to get my mind on board and losening up that shutter again? Q21. 34.10 - Is it okay that I usually text my therapist what I want to say beforehand because I know I won’t be able to talk about it? I usually write some points or sometimes an “essay” on my phone in the notes app and then screenshot it and text it to her and so we can talk about it. Q22. 36.05 - I seem to have a real thing for employing other people with BPD! 3 of my staff share this nasty mental illness. Because I'm a year down the line of Therapy I'm way better equipped to deal with my own emotions - have you any tips on how to deal with theirs?! Q23. 42.49 - In the beginning of covid my T lead a covid support group and said to pass along to anyone who would be interested. I passed along to a friend and group was great and helpful. My T only saw her for 2 sessions but now me and this girl are no longer friends and I’m feeling regretful for sharing my T. All I know is that she told my friend that she’s “seen friends before” but didn’t necessarily confirm or deny anything. This issue has been feeding into my fear of abandonment and reasons to not trust and even though it was a long time ago I can’t stop ruminating on it. Q24. 47.14 - I have been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder depressed type, GAD, PTSD, and GAD. My question is do clients with these diagnoses and number of diagnoses have a chance of improving? What issues should I tackle first? What would you think about a client with these diagnoses? Q25. 49.11 - This month I wanted to ask about stability, identity, and bipolar II. Do you have any advice on how to build a stronger sense of stability and identity in order to avoid drastic mood swings and identity crises. Q26. 53.44 - I'm in college now, and I've been taking mostly asynchronous online classes for the last four years due to COVID, class availability, and scheduling, even though I'm living on campus. I've always struggled a little bit with procrastination with online classes, but this semester has been significantly harder to stay on top of things and get all of my schoolwork done. Any advice for staying motivated and getting stuff done?
