Vwoolf,
I try not to write unless I think I have something to say.How many of us here feel that we are not our real selves anywhere but within our selves? I wonder but I'd think it's a lot.
Maybe it's important to know that about one's self. It helped me when I could be that inside person with my T. It took a long time and a lot of courage.
I honestly think, I truly beilieve that the times I most want not to go back to therapy are times when I am close to something important.
I hope you can find a way to continue to relate to your T. It does sound as though you're getting someplace with her - am I right? DO you feel you've seen to some things with her that needed seeing to?
At times I have had to say to myself, ok, I am going to talk about X and I am going to say what I have to say, I will do it, I will, I will. I will let whatever spills out of me spill out and I will trust my T to know how to help.
((Vwoolf)) LIfe really sucks sometimes. Therapy really sucks sometimes. But sometimes it doesn't and that makes it worth it - to me.
