My therapist and I are kinda doing something interesting on the subject. We're not talking about me getting angry, so much as having the right to be heard. From there, we're then talking about what I want to say, which is helpful and keeps it from becoming a sort of six year old screaming "I hate everything!" We're also talking about why I don't speak up, the feelings of worthlessness, etc. That does help.
{{sigh}} Damn, I hate that she's leaving.
(By the way, I do have a second appointment this week, and will meet -- handshake and schedule -- the new T then. After that, one last session with both, and then no more Brilliant Therapist, but just the Not Yet Known Therapist. We did talk this week about how I felt about her leaving, what I wanted in a therapist, what works well for me, etc. So, I'm cautiously optimistic.)
(Oh, yeah, and I'm reading Lies And The Lying Liars Who Tell Them, which is probably helping, too.)
