Thank you all for your thoughtful and supportive posts. It seemed so silly for me to get so upset over 15 minutes, for Pete's sake, yet somehow it did feel important to me. I've been thinking a lot about it since. First, I have realized that *both* responses are equally me - the rational adult one who is progressing in therapy and the irrational one with the crazy, primitive emotional responses. Second, I made some observations about resistance. I have to face the obvious fact that my getting better hastens the end of a very important relationship. This is something I have been struggling a lot with recently. I don't have time to talk about it now but will in a later post. This is all part and parcel of what's been happening within me since the fall, when I took a time-out from Babble to work on some things. I'm starting to see connections I didn't see before.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you guys - you are all so great :)
Lucie
