Also...did you say she already knows the detail you're having a hard time saying? I know that there is something I told my T ONE time...sort of mixed in with a lot of other stuff...and when we came back to that story later, I was really struggling to get the words out, and T gently told me "I already know" and I was able to move past the stuck place and keep working.

thanks for your replies, guys. I will take you with me today

tree, yes, she knows the detail I'm currently stressing over. It's just that we've gotten to the point in the narrative where I feel like she's going to ask me about it. Where I'm supposed to re-live the emotions about it. It's scarier than anything I've faced in therapy before, ever.
