Li, I'm glad your Ms.T is nice and that she is going to see you multiple times each week. It's a completely different story than the large-gap appointments. But don't feel like you have to jump in at the exact same place where you left off with your Mr.T., or even at the same place your thoughts have moved ahead to. Sometimes it takes awhile to feel ready to be emotional with someone. And that's not running and hiding, it's just your mind keeping you safe and waiting until you're ready. And about the SI specifically, the fact that you told her about the cutting is a huge brave step. Some people take months or years to admit to SI. I knew someone who told her T absolutely everything BUT that. You should give yourself alot of credit, and you'll mention your fingers when you feel it's right.
But I'm pleased for you that you think she may be someone you'll be able to open up to. You deserve support. What do you think of her being female? Did you feel the same "niceness" when you started with Mr.T? Could you feel a difference when speaking to her? ....What am I asking?! I don't know. I'm just so curious.
Do you know when you see her again?
blove, EL
