During our group session on Tuesday, I was very agitated at how my T was treating one of the other group members....it happened to be the group member that referred to me as a "drama queen"....so I'm sure that my reaction has something to do with me as well...there's always a hidden lesson in there somewhere

I was angry, felt he was being pompous and that he was on a scolding power trip.

At one point, he asked if there was anything I wanted to address....and I brought up about how angry I was with how he was in group. He said, "Go on"....and I said, "I don't want to".....And that was the end of that.

I am disappointed....I froze when he told me to "keep going". I'd rather him tell me why he feels I was so angry with him - than for me to try to figure it out. Ugh. I feel like he knows more about me than I do...and that bugs me. Like he has me all figured out, but wants me to figure it out for myself.

I guess I'm also afraid, too, that I'll say something that's offbase....or make it more than what it really is....or maybe it's just that I'm mortified about my feelings.

I have learned a ton, but yes, it comes with pain as well....But the key is that there are reasons for the pain - and figuring it out, understanding it, etc. are part of the process.
