Yes. Exactly. Sometimes I think that if I was less of an "active" therapist and instead just nodded every once in a while, I would still have at least a tiny bit of mental energy by the end of the day. I could work 12 hour days running programs and not have the brain fried. Give me 8 clients in a day and I can't do much by stare at the walls at the end! You have to like hype yourself up to stay mentally sharp for that long. Hard to explain, but indeed draining.

I know I can't keep up this pace forever....but what the boss wants....you know how it goes. Quotas!
