Guest guest Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi All, I really hope that someone out here will be able to help me. I started working on the ACT principals through the book, The Happiness Trap by Russ , and seemed to be making some progress, however I was only using it for about 1 month, when my therapist became ill and i had to start seeing someone else. From here my new therapist got me working on traditional CBT, and even though this worked at the beginning, the effects of it have worn off, and i am back now were i started. I have now begun seeing my old therapist again, as she is back at work, (Only saw her for the first time again, last Friday 24/7), and she has got me back on the track of working with ACT once more. I guess my main problem is that i am struggling with my emotions and feelings, i.e. I feel sick most of the time, so i don't eat, that it is now causing new emotions to well up inside of me. I am trying really hard to just let things be, but for most of the time my mind works like a chess board, and i am always 6 steps ahead of myself. Can you please tell me, am I just expecting to much out of myself as my husband says I am, or should ACT really be helping me by now. (I am still learning the art of defusion) Thanks Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
