This is so true for me also. I think probably for all of us. And I've felt such shame about wanting to stand out, and knowing that I absolutely don't. I love Daisy's T's statement that who wouldn't want to be special? So validating.
I had this great moment in my session on Friday that made me feel so special. I've not gone to therapy lately because I have a new baby, and Friday was my second session back. I was walking around in her office jiggling my baby to sleep, and talking. In the middle of whatever I was saying I suddenly remembered a dream last night that I'd wanted to tell her about, so I interrupted myself and said, "Oh! I have a dream to tell you!" She laughed and said, "I'm so glad you're back, Peg." See, that means I'm *special*! (Warm glowing)
