What you say makes sense and then I want to say BUT! I NEED to get this over with. So, I'll take a deep breath and keep working on it, in pieces and parts. At least I've stopped thinking every week that I'll quit therapy. Now I just fantasize about running away from home. :)
I never realized how hard it is to sort out the parts of you that were/are "damaged" -- from the surface it looks like an easy job to connect those dots, to figure out the cause of your current distress. And even if you can pinpoint those stressors, "fixing" and accepting are impossibly hard.
Sounds like you are really in a productive place right now, but it does sound difficult. It is cool that your Therapist is open to your needs. Don't you love watching their body language as they struggle to not to comfort us?
I haven't seen What about Bob but I just saw A Girl Interrupted which was really good. I also like Billy Crystal's movies, so maybe I'll rent those. I have to go to LA for a state board meeting for 3 days this weekend. I have this fantasy of hot tubs, Cabana Boys and room service. We'll see!
