CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy)

Hi everyone my names Scott busby I’m 32 and I was diagnosed with slight Asperger syndrome yes “slight” I don’t know what that means either, I’ve struggled  with anxiety, panic attacks and depression, I have trouble having conversations and understanding people, I’ve been having CBT for the past 3 weeks now every Monday and becoming more difficult every time as I’m having to complete the questionnaires every time about mood, emotions, feelings, I get homework every session and we go through what situations I've experienced, it’s got to the point I think that I’d be better off speaking to the nas (national autistic society) I’m not sure where to go. Just wondering if anyone else with AS has been through CBT.

  • So it’s been a few weeks now of CBT and I’m still confused and lost, the only thing I’ve got out of it so far is “thoughts are not facts it’s thoughts there not real” she does give me time to take everything in for a few minutes after she’s spoken to me but I’m sat there like I’ve no idea, maybe I have some kind of ADHD, I’ve been given thought diary which I try and fill out but makes no sense as she never looks at them Upside down
