Earthmama, I probably mix it up. With mine, he unearthed the past from me. And now, we talk about it as the flashback come up. If I will, some I do some are still too painful. So are still too blurry to really talk about. I journal them and finally shared my journal. YOu might journal your feelings too. It helps I think. For me it is hard just going and we often talk about that. But lighter sessions are good too and that too me a while to understand. Going slow helps get to the goal faster and that too me a while to understand too. It is scary to need them. That we ALL understand. I am still working on the needing. The other day, I said I need to tell Dr. X this. And I thought well I am getting there. I sometimes email him things I think I need to talk about so he will ask me about them in case I can't bring them up. Or I write lists in case I think about it before hand and then when I get there I draw a blank. I helps. Overall for me, it has helped not to get to worked up over what to talk about. Sometimes the best sessions have been the ones I go in with nothing.
Good luck and I am glad you are here. Welcome.
