Bluemoon,

Yes! I think you nailed that one, it was relieving watching the T-show! And boy as he a performer! lol It is really hard to work on real issues when the T is avoiding them with THEIR stuff. Now I enjoyed it, yes I did, it was fun but it wasn't what I was paying him for. But this was my first time in therapy, I didn't know what to expect.

His thing he would say all the time is "life isn't a **** sandwich." and my response would be, no you're right, it is a DOUBLE DECKER **** SANDWICH!

I know I am more willing to tell my T everything, even when I know I am doing something and how to help me. I would give clues like dont' let me do this or that, etc.
I can talk to almost anyone till the cows come home, and I am very good at avoiding the real issue by talking about something else. It is what helped me survive the reality I was living in as a child. But my T is good, she watches me like a hawk it seems, at my body language, etc. She listens very well too. It is like being in a hot seat, but in a healing way. She is gentle with me when I need it but knows how to push me too when I need that too. I can't wait to see her. The person I hope NOT to see during my fitness class tomorrow is my old T. I don't think I am ready for that, even though we in a sense cleared the air.
