I'm struggling with this right now. My T and I talked this week about me leaving my story in her office. I just...I can't do it. I guess it takes a while to get used to. I feel like I am my story, I AM what happened to me. I talked to my T yesterday on the phone and I told her "I don't know if I exist without it".
I also have a lot of guilt at the idea that by leaving it there I am somehow harming my T and her other clients.
I'm really glad this concept made you feel cared for and satisfied, rainbow. I am going to keep working on it.
