Hi. Trekster22, they wanted me to do group therapy I said no, I'm not sitting with a group of people and discussing what I've gone through in my life,I feel I'm being judged anyway,xxxx

Have you explained to them why group therapy would be difficult for you? As im autistic they wont expect me to go to group therapy.

That's what they gave me group therapy its not as bad as I thought. Nobody judges because they try to put you with people that have been though simaler to you.
