[quote=Anonymous]"I appreciate your overall positive hopes for me, but what will help me the most right now is for you to just be to support me in putting one foot in front of the other, one day at a time." Just tell them exactly what will be helpful to you--they'll want to know. Make it less about "don't do that" and more about "please do this." Or save your "existential" worries and concerns for the therapist, and only confide in them for things they can actually help with: "I've got a crazy deadline at work and I'm worried that I won't be able to get a couple of decent dinners on the table this week. Is there any way I could trouble you to drop off a meal on Sunday?"[/quote]
