Today was session 2 with the New Chick -- let's ALL send her sympathy cards, eh?
It went pretty well, again, and I still think this is likely to be a good fit. I did tell her I was terrified that starting with a crisis of this magnitude was likely to be a problem, and told her that I could feel myself unwilling to *feel* so keeping everything intellectual, rather than emotional. That was about the best I could do, but I'm willing to take it for what it was: doing the best I could today. Next week will be better.
Don't anyone remind me I said that last thing, 'K? No matter how it hurts, it will get better every week. (Even if she is slim, pretty, and well-dressed. Those are not signs that she's not a brilliant therapist. And they don't mean that I have to be intimidated by her. They don't, they don't, they don't {{stamps very little foot}} They really don't.)
