Hi all,
Well it went okay. I told T that coming to the session made me really nervous. We talked a little about some rather trivial stuff. He gave me some advice. Then I took a deep breath and went to a very scary place (deep in the innermost guiltiest part of my conscience). I was pretty talkative. I didn't freeze up, like I was worried I might when I was planning what to say and how to say it. I think it was a relief to get it out there. I was so ashamed of it, but to lay it out there, naked, for T and me to see, well, it took away a lot of power that this shame and guilt had over me. I think it also helped T figure out where I'm coming from. So, it was pretty intense, but I survived.
