<<<I might bring it up again briefly to tell him I spent some time trying, and failing, to think of moving incidents from my past. Which makes me feel like a huge fraud. What right do I have to take up therapy space when I have none?
>>>Don't you think this might be a reason TO take up therapy space? I'm sure you aren't a fraud. And many people would applaud your ability to leave the past in the past. Can you react *emotionally* to an event vs. *intellectually* "in the moment" as they say?
I typically use my brain before my heart. As in I try to solve the problem instead of just being there for someone. I'd make a terrible therapist!
