The old one was firm and even austere. The new one is soft and squishy. :(
I know the old one was falling apart. I could feel that a spring was not what it used to be in my usual spot.
I just can't get comfortable when I feel like I'm sinking into the couch. I have the feeling that if I sit back, my feet wouldn't touch the ground, like a kid's. And I like to sit at an angle to look out the window. Far harder to do that when I'm sinking into billows of couch.
I rather wonder if I would have stuck with him had he had that couch when I first came. Even his old couch was too informal for me, and I preferred a chair. If I hadn't been able to perch, if I had been trapped by sinking, would I have felt comfortable enough to stay?
The old couch suited my therapist better. He is also reassuringly non-squishy.
