My T suggested I look into finding support groups.
I started surfing around and found this site. It seems like a good fit for me and as I read some of the posts I decided I really wanted to share my recent therapy story.I started to type it out and realized it was 3 pages long!!! So I'm sure that's way too long for on here but I really want to have some feedback on it. I'm not sure how to condense it as it all feels important to get out.
I've considered printing it out and giving it to my T so she can see my raw feelings about therapy as well as my feelings for her and the recent events that have happened.
Does this sound like a good idea? Would anyone be willing to read it anyway even if it's so long?
Should I say something in the subject line so people know it's really long?I've been so upset recently and I don't want to keep calling my T because I feel like she will get tired of me. I don't really have friends I can talk to about it so I really just need to talk with people who understand me. I long to connect with someone as well as be there for them too.

Hi, Verloren. I think you should feel free to share your story. I'll read it and I bet some of the others will, too.
Generally, when we have long posts, we just mark them LONG in the subject line. I'm actually not sure if there is a limit to the number of words in one post, but just break it up if you have to.

Hi, Verloren: I would be glad to hear your message. I doubt your t would/will be tired of you or your stories. That is what they do for a living! Listening.
Hugs, sassy
P.S. I feel it is a great idea (when you are so full of feelings and emotions) to write things down and share them with your t....if she is good...she will want to hear your thoughts.
