I know that there are three chairs in there, one in each corner the only corner without one is the corner where the door is. Its a small office. Between each chair is an end table. There is a small table clock on the end table to the left of my T, this I know because I look at that to keep track of time.

There is also a table clock on the end table to right of my T as well because I have seen her look at it once or twice. Then right between her and the table to the right of her, there is a rack with a blanket on it against the wall. Thats all I know, don't know what color the carpet is, what hangs on the wall ect...I literally spend the whole time fidgeting with my hands and only looking at her occasionally.

I only just now realized that I don't pay attention to that surrounding. The strange thing is I really study people. Movements, actions ect...You would think I would know the whole room by now. Not sure why I haven't noticed more.

Do any of you pay attention to what's around you in your T room?
I always notice what's in my T's office. He has changed things around since i began seeing him almost 4 years ago. If he changes photos or stuff on his wall, I notice it. He also doesn't have a big office. I sit on a couch that's against the window, so I dont' know what's going on outside. I focus mainly on him. He recently took some stuff off of his wall and replaced it with music memorabilia. He has a chair in one corner of the room and I know that some of his clients sit on that chair. But I prefer the couch - it's leather and very soft and I love the feeling I get of sinking into it. He sits in a big leather chair by his desk.
