Good you're on a list. Talk to us in the meantime? We're not professionals, just other folks going thru similar things that you can chat with.

Hi Weemigs

That does suck but echoing Kinikia, do other things in the mean time.

You could;

1) join in conservations on this forum

2) do a bit (not too much) of research on CBT and compassion therapy

3) get a routine, I am just discovering how liberating structure can be

When you get to the CBT sessions, you may be better prepared or have even improved a bit which will make it easier to do the work.

If things are really getting too much and you need to put the breaks on, you can call Breathing Spaces, evenings and weekends to speak to a trained counsellor.

And like Kinikia said you have the sessions booked, they are yours and no one can take them away.

Hope that you can hang in there. Come back and talk to us any time you like.

Matt
