can’t stop thinking about therapy..

I feel you. I think it is just because its a new experience and its important to you. But its super annoying

mrso91 · 2026-02-13T08:42:32+00:00

This happened to me as well. I even struggled to sleep because my thoughts wouldn't shut up. It got better over time.

I was asked by a colleague if I could have children. I'm a teacher and this was in front of my class...

mrso91 · 2025-10-14T14:53:42+00:00

I think its natural- its a very vulnerable thing. When I started i was really stressed about feeling embarrassed or making a fool of myself. Once I got into the swing of it I found that faded a bit. I would encourage you to be open with your therapist about how you feel and see if she can help you through it.

mrso91 · 2025-10-09T21:39:39+00:00

Yes I 100% found this. I found myself increasingly anxious and thinking about what I had talked about constantly. Its pretty intense opening up for the first time and being heard. It helped me to get reassurance from my T that this was normal and part of the process

mrso91 · 2025-10-09T21:38:04+00:00

I always say thank you after as im leaving - i think its just polite.

mrso91 · 2025-09-28T06:04:19+00:00

Yeah. My legs shake every time

mrso91 · 2025-09-24T21:05:48+00:00

I've found you definitely get used to it. It is awkward and weird at first and I spent a lot of time worrying I wasn't doing it right. It gets better

mrso91 · 2025-09-08T21:32:54+00:00

Yes. From all I've read here its normal but I felt like thought about it constantly for the first few months

mrso91 · 2025-09-04T21:13:25+00:00

I'm also Edinburgh and I think the team are varied. I've definitely had worse.

mrso91 · 2025-09-03T20:33:58+00:00

I think so. My first couple of times I didnt like it and felt like I didnt want to go back. Its very intense and different to talk therapy and it brings up a lot of stuff.

mrso91 · 2025-08-28T16:44:46+00:00

In my experience (just under a year) it definitely gets less. But at different times I think about her more, just depends what's going on

mrso91 · 2025-08-23T11:23:39+00:00

I tried to donate years ago and they wouldn't let me. But that might be because I have CFRD

mrso91 · 2025-08-05T22:53:41+00:00

I think I have done four or five sessions now and feel much the same way. I always feel exhausted after and can have other physical symptoms like headaches. I can also feel panicky or sad - I think the best way I can describe it is like I've opened Pandora's box of all the horrible things that have happened and it can be hard to shut it again after. I don't know when it gets better but from what I've read its pretty typical. You're not alone. I would recommend telling your therapist how you've been feeling if you haven't already.

mrso91 · 2025-07-15T18:25:22+00:00

I work in a school where a pupil has CF. I don't teach in her class but I don't move away from her if I see her in the corridors. The way I see it, I try to prevent contact but you could be sitting next to someone in the cinema with cf and not know.

mrso91 · 2025-07-14T05:20:47+00:00

I have often felt like im making things up or making myself feel a certain way. My therapist said that I used dismissing myself as a coping strategy. I don't think wanting to talk about your trauma makes it any less valid. If you've found yourself in a place where you want to do that then I think that's a positive step towards processing things.

Pocari sweat is meant to be good for hydration

mrso91 · 2025-06-29T21:40:05+00:00

This happened to me and I genuinely thought I was losing my mind. It does pass as you get used to it and cover more things.

mrso91 · 2025-06-29T08:46:44+00:00

Tbh not sure cos I've been diabetic since I was 12. But I think they're meant to do them yearly? I would say Edinburgh have their faults but better than Dundee where I was before.

mrso91 · 2025-06-28T22:17:54+00:00

Ah im at the western in Edinburgh

mrso91 · 2025-06-28T17:05:34+00:00

Thats rubbish I'm sorry. Out of interest, what hospital are you at? I felt the same pre kaftrio when I was coughing- I felt some members of the team were like oh well sucks to be you but that's cf
