@Former-Member im very sorry all of that happened to you- i literally dont ahve any words at the moment. i love you too and your always in my thoughts. im glad you felt comfortable sharing that
@Owlunarthank you for your responses as well. i cant wait to get outta here. im back at home tonight and it is very strange but i guess im use to that now. i have no one in this life i feel i can really trust now, not even my psychologist. its not her its the program its running through im afraid they will release my details and i dont want that
@Phoenix_Rising i rang the psychologist today to get more information. they do the 3 sessions for an assessment and then they can also give other therpy sessions based on what they diagnose as well as telling gp psych etc etc
i have changed to a female psychologist and the group sessions are only if i want to go- they did hint to me that there was older people in there. i so guess its an indication that there arent many younger people to get to know really.
im not into group therapy- its based on mindullness and distress tolerance skills.
yes im about an hour- to an hour and a half way depending on how far into syndey you are.

They look like the weed we used to have to clear paddocks of when I had horses too @outlander. Hope you are sleeping now and not too sore in the morning. And that your appointment goes well for you.

I went to a cooking group at a drop in centre @outlander. It was just ok. We made salmon patties but nothing to go with them. It doesn't challenge me enough but it's good to get out of the house and mix with people a bit. Just washing to do today.
