I am considering starting therapy again in the new year after 3 months of having stopped almost 2 years of psychotherapy.
I struggled with trust a lot and hardly opened up and when I did it was always in a matter of fact way. I share more with my friends then I do my therapist. There was a lot of shame, feeling of being misunderstood etc and never having the courage to talk about it openly to overcome these feelings. Has a particular type of therapy worked for you? I am not sure where to start approaching therapists, even that feels too assertive of my needs they have always been assigned to be via a network. What does recovering from CEN look like? I feel like I have tried to recover from this for 10 years and here I am 28 and still unable to make friends. |

Look into EMDR. It helps a lot of people with these types of issues.

I had “psychodynamic” therapy but it didn’t help as the therapist was very judgemental and shamed me
He took on the “abusive parent” role for a time I think he needed therapy himself I’m not sure what sort of therapy is helpful (I’m also in the uk ) I hope you find a good therapist __________________ |

I found that 2 years of INTENSE DBT group along with my private therapy was the best in the 20 years I had wasted on therapy. It gave me understanding & the words to be able to put with what I had gone through which opened the door to the research I did on understandibg the behaviors related to ASD Which I discovered both my dad & my soon-to -be x husband were both experiencing & I had no idea how do deal with that unknown white elephant in my life..
My group psychologist handled it like a college class which for me was perfect though she handled it in a way that all could relate. It brought me to where I am today with a lit if other things in tbe new life I made for myself after FINALLY leavong my H after 33 years of marriage.(other best thing I ever did) DBT touches on so many aspects of life from emotions to interpersonal effectiveness to mindfulness to emotional regulation & teaches skills & the abiluty to reframe thoughts. Most of us learned skills that got us by when we were kids but aren't functional as adults. DBT is great for handlung this. __________________ Leo's favorite place was in the passenger seat of my truck. We went everywhere together like this.
