> Hi SV. Yeah, she was asking me how I feel about my old therapist now and I couldn't say anything. Well, I did mutter "i don't care". But, yeah I couldn't spit anything out. Maybe I'll have better luck this week? Why is it so hard to talk?
Good questions. It's a conundrum, really: in order for us to begin to feel secure with them and build trust (and/or attachment) we need to share our inner "stuff" with them, but how do we start to tell a new T our "stuff" when we they are still strangers to us? It's hard, but I think your T is aware of the difficulty. Try to have patience with yourself; you'll know when the time is right.
