Hey everyone...
Im starting a weekly two hour group therapy thing for eating disorders tomorrow and i was wondering if anyone has any experience with this kind of thing? I am pretty nervous about what it will involve. I am not the best with opening up to people and talking about personal thoughts etc (It took me 5 years to tell anyone about this mess ive gotten myself into). Im hoping it will help but to be honest, i dont see how it can with my useless communication skills
Thanks for reading

We also did journals and would choose to read them aloud if we wanted.
You always have the option to stay quiet, but remember that you get out of therapy what you put into it! Try to trust the other group members in that nothing will ever go outside the circle of trust. Good luck :)
I will be in your same boat next week!!!
Im sure you are doing great!!
