I'm glad it was a good session for you. It's really great when we have those magic, everything-clicks moments. I wonder though if you might be defending from something in those moments and using the humor to hide deeper feelings. It reminds me very much of your descriptions of interactions with your former T (forgive me if I am way off base, but your written descriptions seem similar is all), and I wonder if the use of humor is a way for you to deflect some of the pain and 'work' of therapy for a little while. I'm NOT saying you're not working, I am SURE you are, I am just saying that if this use of humor is a pattern for you, it might be something worth exploring. And I'm just not sure why it is so fun to make one's therapist uncomfortable about confidentiality rules, but I totally trust that those are my issues showing through because I tend to go out of my way to make sure I would never offend my T, and I think we're just different in that respect.
Anyway, I'm very glad you had a good session.
