It is hard for me to really believe this. My therapist says that he wants to hear the details, that he needs to hear them...because then I'm not alone with the experience anymore. And everytime I say I've said this before, he says this is the process, going over and over it again and again. He swears he gets something new everytime I tell it. I add in stuff or feel something else. I think I should be done with this part, I want to move away from the story telling. He says "you are where you are" and he always says it can take a long time to get through this stuff. It feels like it is taking too long.
I am starting to wonder if I want to protect him from these stories because my feelings for him have changed. If I feel small and young, he seems "big" enough to handle it. But when I don't, I stuff the stories away and don't tell him about the flash backs. I guess I should tell him that.
