Not to worry...I know posting isn't "direct" support for immediate pain. It is good for clarity, I have a lot to take with me to therapy tomorrow.
It is funny that you should bring up intensity because at my last session we discussed exactly that. There are areas that I am considering (need to?) really, finally, deal with. However, due to the current demands and stresses of my life, my therapist was wondering if it is the right time...he is afraid it might be too much right now. I "crashed" a couple of weeks ago (I think I read somewhere on here about disclosure and the ensuing emotions) and we went to twice a week sessions to try to contain things. I feel calm right now, but fragile. I guess we'll decide how to proceed this week. I'm torn...I want to feel better so "cleaning out" the wound seems attractive...but I'm well aware it might be (ok, will be) painful.
I am trying to take your advice about giving it time - patience is not one of my strengths. -D
