[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 205949, member: 1514"] During therapy today my therapist approached me with something she thought I might be interested in and she felt I would be extremely good at. This agency wants to start offering more groups and community outreach support type things. They will start off with the first group being a depression group. The whole agency went through their client lists and got together and talked about people who they thought would be good fits for this type of group. Right away they all thought that I would be huge help in getting this group started and move quickly into being a major player as leader of peer support. I dont know if my therapist will be the one heading the group or not and I find I am really fine with whoever it turns out to be. A year or more ago that would have thrown me for a loop and it would have been a deal breaker. Now...Im perfectly fine with whomever it is. The only worry they have is my physical health but like I told her, I can wheel myself in if need be...lol. I think I am really getting better about things. I still find little things I need to process. We are going to cut back to every other week. I think that is ok with me for now. I told her I can foresee a huge problem the day I see Jamie off on the plane. She said that is only natural and to give her that date and She will make that time available for me day or nite. I can actually foresee a day I graduate therapy. The day will come when I just email her for support like I get from a good friend. That may end up where this relationship actually ends. Or I may just end up staying with the agency as a peer support person. Maybe they can make a small part-time job out of it for me..who knows. LOL. That would be cool. [/QUOTE]
