therapy or going it alone

Posted by deerock on February 23, 2010, at 22:25:11

hi everyone,
i often have conflicts that arise around being in therapy. its quite helpful but what frequently happens is that i feel that i credit therapy and my therapist for allowing me to get better rather than take the credit for doing the work myself.
a friend recently said oh hey i havent heard you talk about how anxious you feel in a few months. and my response was yeah its because my T helped me.
this is quite frustrating. i feel that i would be much better off if i were to make the changes ive made due to my own regard for myself and my own insight rather than insights that are born out of a relationship with my T.
i feel like i become dependent on her rather than becoming someone who can stand on their own two feet.
thanks for listening. i welcome any and all input.
have a nice day.
