Hey all,
I'll try to keep this short.
Ive been getting out alot recently - feel good about it. The offer of CBT has finally turned up over a year and a half after visiting my GP. I didnt phone in, nor for the reminder that they sent and now I have missed the oppurtunity. Im sure its more because Im anxious about talking about my problems and going over them than being anxious about travelling there and meeting whoever it is that would give the treatment. I feel like Id rather just forget about the past than dig it all back up. Im lucky that Ive got a standard therapist at my doctors that I can ring to book an appointment whenever I like if I ever want to talk about things - so I do have something available.
Have I been completely stupid? I would have jumped at the chance for CBT when I first visited my GP, but Ive forced myself towards some real improvement over the past few months and now I feel like I just want to let the past (of my anxiety problems) be the past.
Thoughts on this really appreciated.
Thanks for reading
