Wow, Daisy, what courage it took to tell him that. I'm so glad you did. I wish you could feel less frantic and panicked about this flood right now. I think the timing stinks, with the holidays here, but I don't guess we can choose when that window may open. But I suppose in the midst of a flood or rushing river, it would be nigh impossible to feel in control. And scary to just ride it out. But you are not riding it out alone.
I can relate to the worry that you have this limited window of opportunity to get certain things out. When I had that intensely emotional session a few weeks ago, I felt like I had to keep doing that, somehow making myself get to that place each session after. And that doesn't work for me. I guess I have to be patient and let what comes come. And try to work on the defenses when the stuff is not at the surface.
So, I do think you will have another window if you need to. As many as you need to. But there's a lot of pressure that has built up behind this particular one, and I think that's why it's pouring out so fast.
((((Daisy)))) You've got plenty of life preservers in your life. Here and IRL.
