What I did was similar to what you did, and then I said at the next session, "You know that email I sent you, the letter," and he said something like yes, and then I said, well I think I should talk about this stuff, but I don't know where to start. He said, well lets start with XXXX becasue it was so different from the rest. I know I am not making sense, but it has to do with my issues and csa, etc.
Intimacy? I won't even touch that topic with him yet even though he said we would become very intimate before we ended therapy. He freaked me out, and I told him. I just said it. I told him I knew he didn't mean sexual, but nevertheless, intimacy. OH MY GOD!! And other stuff, I just spit it out most of the time while looking at the floor. When I don't just spit it out as planned, I get pissed at myself and send him an email, and then we talk about it the next time. But of course I regret sending the email as soon as I have hit send.
I think you threw up because they are such important topics for you, and you want your T to be sensitive to these topics. So, I hope it went well.
