I felt very confused after the session, but I did not think it was a crummy session. One thing I am really glad happened was that we had some discussion on the multiple role issue. I think I have been wanting to talk about that with T for a long time. I also am very glad I was able to tell him very firmly and communicate to him how important it is to me that I get confidentiality back. That was something that had bothered me since our last session and I was really pleased I was able to get this out on the table rather than just ignoring it and hoping for the best.
So, not a crummy session, in my book, but not all sweetness and light either. What is a "crummy" session, anyway? That's interesting to me.... Probably my single most
painful session is my most memorable, and I am glad it occurred. So pain doesn't equal crummy. I think I would find a session crummy if it consisted of repeated, unsuccessful attempts to connect. That would be very unsatisfying and frustrating. And crummy. And I don't think our last session would be a crummy session in T's book either, if only for the reason that hey, yeah, sunny got kinda angry!

Great advice, thanks. Kind of like with my kids. They grow up so fast and then they leave....
