Is it a waste?

How do you know when you stop making progress? If i keep going to these group therapy sessions and hanging out with my family, but have my head ducking down, into my phone or look at the ground to avoid social interactions....does it still count as a visit? i mean i'm not as bad as im describing i do join in on activities that my family does but i am in a lot of ways still disconnected. at what point does it seem to be a waste of time for me and my personal gains?

a visit. :) xx

Joining in the activities is a plus. It doesn't matter if you are on your phone or not. It's a gradual process .
