Been there. You just used one of my most reliable tools for this dilemma: Sharing about it within my peer support groups. The sharing doesn't need to be profound or fancy. Just share.

Next, I sit with that step for a while and see where it takes me.

May it lead you to where you need to be. May you find the serenity to follow. Gentle support, whichever way you take it, Veronica.

I'm with Dooo, when I got to that point in my own therapy, the lack of motivation itself became the topic for my sessions. In my case it was burn out, too. Working on my stuff got was so repetitive that I got bored with myself. Just got to where I didn't see the point of talking about it without seeing much dramatic change. I was tired of trauma drama.

It turned out that for me my therapist said that was a good sign that I wasn't getting off on my stories any more and that I was ready for real healing. I was looking for stability instead of being the adrenaline addict that my traumatic past life had led me to become. My extreme past experiences were no longer entertaining to me any more.

From there I got into a face to face support group. Since people in that group had extreme life experiences, too, some more than mine, it helped me with getting past that burnt out feeling about my own so I could focus on the healing.

Don't know if that helps, but I do appreciate your being honest about skipping therapy sessions, veronica. It led me to remember why I skipped mine at one point, and what it meant in terms of shifting gears in my recovery journey. Much support to you as you figure out what it means in yours.

This is where I am also. I been skipping therapy sessions and I'm burnt out with everything.

One thing you can do is journaling. I know that requires effort also, but much less effort than getting into the car, driving to the therapist's office and signing in, and enduring the session itself.

Journaling has helped me so much. You won't see the help right away, but if you journal about your childhood, recreate the history and chronology of events, and also journal day to day feelings about events, this is a very good way to understand what is happening to you, and it helps to express yourself.

You can also write letters to God or people you are angry with. This is a catharsis also, that helps me.

journalling helps me enormously. better out than in. I'm struggling a bit at the moment.
