My first thought is that sounds like grief or mourning. Mourning is positive and painful. I certainly don't have the knack.
Everyone's therapy is so intimate, personal. I can barely fathom the story's significance in your therapeutic relationship. I know it. I sounds remotely biblical which for me is unpleasant (no offense, please; it's childhood).
I know I don't get *it*, because your therapy is unique to you and I haven't followed along here. I would have asked what the h.e.double-toothpicks that story meant.
I am in my own process of not understanding my therapist. Something is shifting and I'm not getting it. It is like he's speaking in code to *give me a message*. I've not felt that before.
I'm awfully sorry for the discomfort Dinah. I went backwards last night and read your prior post about you wanting it to be your decision--not the world's. Made me smiled of course. And also think, more power to you. Go for it. You must be a kind of patient of a lifetime for a good therapist :)
Hope your day is a good one. Really.
