In reply to good session - so why am i sad?, posted by sunnydays on October 25, 2006, at 19:05:58
I think sometimes it is hard to get a taste of what should have happened and then have to leave. If your dad had been like your therapist, you would have that "all the time" -- not just once per week, you know?
So I think those good sessions are bittersweet. But I'm proud of you for pushing yourself. You told him something hard and he honored it. These are the experiences that will help you heal.
Sometimes I describe the connection I feel to my therapist after a session like you had as "a secret smile in my heart." I hope you have the same feeling and it stays around for you.
Hugs,
Daisy
