In reply to I am SO close to 'getting ' something...., posted by muffled on May 11, 2007, at 22:56:31
I felt like I was so close to something really important once, too. It was weird, because as soon as I told my T that and we both just said, "Huh, that's interesting," because I didn't know what it was that was important, I had the most amazing session I had had in a long time. I made HUGE progress in two sessions. Now I feel like I've taken a step backwards, but my T doesn't seem disappointed at all, and he was really reassuring last session. He told me he's in it for the long haul and said that even if I'm not in this area for graduate school we can still do phone sessions and he won't leave me.
Anyway, this is rambling, but kind of what made me 'get' what I was looking for was to acknowledge it and then relax and stop looking for it for a little bit. Then it just hit me, and it was amazing. I don't know if what you get will be positive or not, but if you can just sort of let it be there without trying to look at it or push it away it might come. Just an idea.
It sounds like you are doing really intense, good work in T, muffled. You are really doing the hard work. Good job.
