(((((Tree)))) I hope you feel better after the session today.

When I read Marsha Linehan's DBT book, these things you listed were very important as a first order of business. And even when working on "more advanced" issues, sometimes it is necessary if you feel overwhelmed with going into csa or whatever it might be and need to go back and address sui feelings, SI feelings, PTSD reactions etc. That is how VERY hard it is to move forward into the harder stuff, like past abuse.

You are right on target, I think, with working so hard and going places that are overwhelming for you now. T is so good and gentle and if you need to cry and let it out that way, crying is SO relieving. After a good cry sometimes it all comes out.....

Love and hugs and Im looking forward to hearing how today's session went....
