I have SO much shame too, i know how you feel. it is so hard to talk to someone else about those feelings because it feels so wrong, so dirty, so unacceptable, but when you're with a T who makes you feel accepted, and gives you unconditional positive regard then it makes it at least easier. i've found it easier to put things in writing, and have my T read what i've written, and the process is cathartic.

good luck!
