Thanks Mair. I think that like you I do try to process difficult things before taking them to therapy, by writing about them on Babble or emailing the Samaritans. That seems to be a kind of resistance I have to trusting my therapist, a need to talk them over with someone outside beforehand. The books seem to serve a different purpose. They don’t interfere with what I am already doing in therapy - rather I get upset with things in the books that are perhaps not completely relevant to me.
