I've been reflecting on the group session I had for 3 days now, trying to make sense of it. There are 8 of us, plus the T/facilitator, and I seem to like most of them, but I have absolutely no desire to share any of what I am feeling with them. The only things I will comment on are things brought up within the room (eg, what do you think of the clock ticking) or I'll talk a little to the other members about their problems.
Why should I want these strangers to know about me? I like to choose who I tell personal things to, I like them to earn the right to know. And I know that's probably one of my 'problems', but I'm quite happy to keep it that way.
And when I'm sitting in that group room and everyone is saying how calming it it and how it is a 'safe haven' I just want to hide under the big pile of my old T's cusions that are in the corner of the room and dissapear.
