Anyone know what this is I've just been referred and have no clue. Ive been told i have to think about what i want to achieve from therapy specific goals and what stops me . And i dont know other than I want to be well and my head wont let me . Im really anxious as ive had many therapists and i always get told to come with ideas as to what i want to acheive and I dont know i just wanna feel better.

That sounds difficult. It sounds abit like when they psych asks me what she can do for me. I don't know. Isn't that her job.

I reckon that wanting to feel better sounds like a good goal to me!

It's CBT and it doesnt work for me and i wish theyd realise this rather than keep doing it . Its making me really upset

Have you tried talking to them and letting them know that you don't think CBT works and why you think it doesn't?
