I am at peace with myself this morning. I slept well. My husband has been so supportive and comforting. The funny thing is, I truly feel she created this conflict. Now I do feel anger towards her and (was) "running with it" but the cause is her attitude and replies, not the canceled appointments.
This afternoon my husband and I have a joint session with my daughter's therapist. My husband has a work emergency and cannot go (Daisy - talk about timing) so I will go alone and after discussing my daughter, I will ask if I can get her perspective too. I really like her and how she sums things up. She's so smart.
This brings back the reasons why I left my T 18 years ago. This place where I cannot reach her sense of reason. It certainly doesn't feel like she is trying to reach me half way or even an inch.
Thanks for everyone's thoughts. I will hold onto all of them and I won't doubt myself. I don't think I could ever tape record our sessions although I did suggest that on Tuesday "it's too bad this is not vidiotaped so you can point out what about my behavior felt hostile". Here I was tapping into my yoga zen breathing. I even remember besides checking in with my breath, checking to make sure my hands were not clenched, feet relaxed, ...
It's so confusing.
Thank you,
Anniep.s. I was actually flattered by her "sharp tongue" insult. I always wished I could think quickly on my feet. grin. Instead, I tend to get stunned into silence (like Monday). I was "sharper" on Tuesday because I had some time to get my thoughts together.
