I'm so sorry that your session left you feeling this way ShortE. It's a good indication that it wasn't handled well at all. We're supposed to leave feeling better, or at least that we've gotten somewhere, accomplished something.

I was being a little extreme, that "kid gloves" was how someone very fragile is treated, that it's a far cry from simply not pummelling someone against the wall.He definately could have been a little more thoughtful in his response to you. This seems to lack any tact or regard for your feelings.

> What did I want? I wanted him to say, you're upset about this I can see. I wanted some kind compassion. Dammit. I feel so hurt.Your way of handling it, having him acknowledge your hurt, seems to me to be the better way of handling it, you're right. I'd be so angry, and you have every right to be hurt and angry ShortE.
Can you put down in writing how all of this made you feel, and how it should be? Maybe then he can see how wrong all of this is. You're not a failure, you've just been manhandled so to speak. I hope your husband was able to offer you the comfort that you needed.((((((hugs))))))
