The odd thing for me was spending my entire life thinking that I hadn't really been affected by some things that had happened to me as a young girl and then finding out just how much it had affected me. We weren't even discussing any of what had happened but then all of a sudden there it was and I had to tell him. I think sometimes it becomes a defense to bury all of these painful feelings. During therapy it's as if everything starts unraveling as you begin to loosen up with your T. But it's a slow process and you have to take your own pace with it. Too much too quickly may be just that. It sounds like you're moving in the right direction and that your T is supportive and guiding you along the way.
