Maria,

Maybe you should be asking your C for details regarding coping mechanisms.

I know she needs to get to know you both and get a feel for the situation, but I know for me, that wasn't enough. I knew what was going on. I knew the dynamics. I didn't want to just sit and 'discuss' it all. I needed coping mechanisms. That's what the cognitive behavioural therapy helped me with. It helped me to learn to deal with that which I could deal with, and to store away the stuff I couldn't deal with until a point when I could deal with it.....and stop worrying about it until then. Because it was all the worrying about the 'what if's' that was stoppping me being able to recommit.
