never once did i feel you were "grumbling"..
enfact i have always felt you helpful,insightful, generous and very very compassionate..
i am credible even though i cant spell ,no?
how is your therapy going?
do you find the holiday seasons to be very emotional,,like you need to touch base with your theripist for a constant reminder that you are ontrack? i have missed a session last week because he went away and i feel lost...almost like he is apart of my inner self..the only few good i have left...

I think it's great that you're able to think of your therapist like that. :) It sounds as if the trust is really growing. I tend to forget mine over the vast expanse of a week, and am just left with a feeling of unease.
I wish I felt emotional about the holidays. I used to. Now they just seem like a colossal waste of time and effort. Isn't that horrible? So I get sort of depressed over not feeling giddy like I used to. Which is silly I guess.
You are very credible, and thank you. :)
When is your next session? Mine is tomorrow but it feels somehow like today should have been Monday. Too many days off I guess.

its really snowing here and its helping me get some decorating finished,.however any type of christmas music makes me cry like a baby? even "Raffi's" .."Must be Santa Clause"...:(
i see my sw tomorrow and i and very nervous because of my setbacks..
i feel like i have failed him..
i know i have to be honest and tell him how poorly i have been..
he always tries to make me cry,,i keep telling him why are you trying to do that and he says its good to cry infront of others to share...
i think i have share enough everyday with my family....
sorry for the ramble..
he never gave me reason not to trust him...
i am just waiting for him to betray me in some fashion..so i can hate him???
confused?

You haven't failed him. That's something that a parent who identifies too closely with a kid to feel, not a good therapist. And it sounds like he's a good therapist. He'll help you get past the setbacks so that *your* life will be better.
Just go in and be truthful.
It's hard to trust people, isn't it. It took me years to fully trust my therapist, and even now I have my moments. But he kept giving me no reason to distrust him. :) You can't ask for much more than that.
