CBT sessions is a basis for getting the foundation of information across to the person, that is all it is. It actually IS NOT a basis that after x amount of sessions you will be all good, because that would be a blatant lie on any counsellors behalf. You cannot just open up your worse trauma through summer and think it will all be ok for you to start school again, trust me on this. You decision... but you can tell yourself the "I told you so" part on you finding this out for yourself.

This forum is about people learning from others experience, all of which replicates itself here. Not one person have I ever read here said they have achieved such a thing, ever. You will not be the first either, trust me. It cannot be done because your brain does not work that way. I say trust your therapist if you want and do this, then you might want to trust me after you find out the hard way.

All I can say to you Nic, is that you have been warned. I am not going to argue this point with you, you're an adult and will learn for yourself. I honestly get sick of telling people how things will go, they disagree, then they find out exactly what I or another here told them to begin with. Go do it I say, go learn, and just accept your own decisions when it all falls down upon you by thinking such or believing such can be achieved with trauma.

Look forward to hearing how this turns out for you.
