I think we've all left sessions where we are sure we are in trouble -- having said or done the wrong thing. And even if we have done something to upset our therapists (trust me, mine is never thrilled to hear, 'oh yes, I'm still having those thoughts') the idea is to figure out why you did what you did and work through it together. You learn to tolerate someone being upset with you and you also learn she won't just walk away because she is upset. Upset is actually time-limited, so I hear.
You can't undo what you did. But I admire your honesty with her. And given your issues, I'm sure she wasn't shocked. And I guess she already knows you aren't perfect -- after all you are in therapy!
Try not to let it eat at you. Hugs,
Daisy
