Yeah, trust.
And my issues with it seem to be different than most people's.
Most people are trying to trust their therapist not to abandon them. And I understand that. But abandonment is so familiar to me it feels almost comfortable.
But my issue is more trusting him enough to let him care a tiny bit. That is really hard for me to do.
Why? Why do most people long for caring, and I fear it more than anything else?
I mean I'm okay with caring about people. I really do care about my husband, my son, some of the people I work with, even my therapist. But I'm not okay with any of those people caring about me :-(
Except for Babblers. That's strange but I can take the care I get here and it even makes me feel better. Maybe because I know that you can all ignore me anytime you want, you don't have to look at me.
I don't know.
