Group therapy

How many of you engage in group therapy?

Group therapy has never worked well for me other than attending 12 Step programs.

I was offered CBT in a group setting and I told them I didnt want to do it. Its hard enough speaking to someone one on one, I don’t want 4 of us speaking to the same psychologist.

Don’t want to minimize that normal people have stress and need therapy. But I did not feel I could share my core beliefs. It would disrupt the whole group.

I never gone back.

I do every week. It’s helpful to me

Do you share your SZ experience to the group?

A bit, yes. Not heavily though

Maybe timing had a thing to do with it when I was experiencing major positive symptoms and I just could not relate to anything anyone was sharing and when the therapist asked me to share my core beliefs. I thought omg mine is so dangerous. Still I think I would need to be in a group with others who experience psychosis.

Yeah. I know what you mean… in my group, there’s one guy who is not in reality. So that makes me feel s little better
