Experiences with

Group therapy

Lets stick together.

I’m considering group therapy. Just wondering if any of my MBC friends have done this and would like to know if it was beneficial. I’m basically a quiet shy person so not so sure if it’s for me. I just feel like no one gets me at times. Thank you in advance Lori🙏🏻

does anyone know of group therapy for those with depression , not responding to meds or other forms of treatment. If so could you pass along details of what and when.

He and I are in both individual and group therapy. He has some side effects, such as skin picking, weight gain, and difficulty falling asleep on his own. Although I see a difference in his combined type ADHD with the medication, he is generally unhappy and has difficulty keeping friends.

Hi everybody, I was recommended this book in a group therapy session last week - Embracing the Fear by Judith Bemis & AMR Barrada.

I am doing some journaling/yoga/meditation, but thinking about supplementing with maybe some group therapy/support groups. Thanks so much in advance for any responses - I appreciate the help on my journey.

I took a leave of absence to do TMS, medication and in person group therapy. That helped a bit and I went back to work only to leave from embarrassment and not ready to work yet. I have been working a new job in finance for almost 2 years.

At a recent group therapy session, the experienced therapist responded to me as if I was completely unhinged by suggesting that doing therapy had risks. Most therapists, like most people, need to sell their services to support themselves.

Since then I have done outpatient group therapy along with my regular therapy session. I want to be able to do this but I leave a week from today and I’m getting anxious and my boyfriend is getting frustrated with me

I can see my GP whenever I need to because she is literally in the same building as my Group Therapy Program. She looked concerned when I was just talking to her yesterday (Thurs). I'm scared but skeptical. Can't trust my own brain? Help.

Got a group meeting today and i'm nervous because I feel that people can pick up on my body language and read into it and notice, i'm nervous. Also afraid that I wont be able to stop observing the people around me and what they're doing and that will be noticed as well. I'd like some advice please.

So i went to my second group therapy. It went well, know seemed to be paying much attention to my body language (like I'm afraid of) no one seemed to see me see them carrying on and being themselves. (hyper focusing on them).

I'm at group therapy and I'm feeling really paranoid right now. More than usual. I'm afraid that someone will notice my paranoia and shame me for it ...thoughts?

After that I attended outpatient group therapy for about 6 weeks, and continued to see my own therapist. I’m just worried the same thing will happen and I’ll be stuck in the middle of the ocean throwing up from the waves or Norovirus.

Every therapist that has been seen says she needs a higher level of help but then the facilities just want to drug her up and put her in group therapy all day which is detrimental to herself as she cannot hear others struggles as she takes it in to herself. Will not do ERP either.Any suggestions?

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?

He also does some group therapy but it's more geared towards us on parenting strategies and how to manage "big emotions." I'm glad I found this group because sometimes it is a daily struggle at home and mentally/emotionally exhausting for both my wife and I to manage/help our son.

I take several depression pills and go to a group therapy 3 times a week. I belong to several online depression sites. I pray everyday that God will give me strength and courage to leave, because I can’t do it on my own.

Well I finished my CBT 1 to 1 in January and my group therapy a couple of weeks later. I feel lost and I don't now what to do now. Therapy did help me, but once they leave you to get on with it. It doesn't feel right to just leave me with nothing. What can I do now/next?

I am wondering if I could get some feedback from the group in reference to radiation therapy combined with Lupron. Without getting into too much detail, It came back after 22 years. Grade 1 Gleason 6. PSA was less than 0.1 until after the 10th year where it started to slowly rise.
