Hi,
So I saw my T today. We had a good talk. We talked about my feelings around my mom and I was able to sort out that it worries me that she's being somewhat reasonable this time because it confuses me. I don't know what to expect in the future and what to believe. This unpredictability is characteristic of my mother, and it is so hard to deal with.
I can tell my T cares about me. There was a point where I was feeling bad about myself and when he was talking to me his face showed so much caring and emotion in it. At one point I was scared of saying something, and he said, "You can trust me."
Then, when I was checking my email after therapy, it turns out my mom has changed her mind and will pay for twice a week. It's a long story and I need to talk to my T at our session on Monday because she laid a big guilt trip on me along with it.
Uggh.

Hi Sunnydays,
Your T sounds so caring and lovely.
I have big issues with my mum too. She brings out such a mix of feelings in me. It must be very difficult relying on your parents for your continued therapy. I really hope she sticks with paying for 2 sessions per week so that you get the support you need.
Take care,
Witti

you got what you asked for [2x weekly sessions] and more [guilt trip]
if only life didn't come with these extra "bonuses"...
Your T sounds really nice and genuine. I'm glad he's there for you. You deserve some support as you get the mom-stuff under control
