My partner and I started couples therapy six months ago and our therapist keeps suggesting 'playful exercises' but we both feel ridiculous doing them and end up going through the motions without any real connection or fun. We used to be genuinely silly together and now even therapeutic play feels forced and awkward.
More people experience this than they realize.
The prescription of play as medicine can kill the very spontaneity that makes play healing.
