Well I had my individual session today, and told her how I was feeling. She was surprisingly helpful. She said I need to develop 'teflon' so that I don't take on others' projections. We visualized a teflon suit for me. Sounds silly, but it really made me feel better to do it, and to know I can use this image in the group sessions.
Here I thought my problem was I'm not open enough to people, and not loving enough. It felt good to be told that instead of opening more, I might need to shore up my boundaries a little. She said I need to withdraw completely because I take on too much stuff from people.
