Okay, maybe i just dont get it.

t wants to work on dbt 1/2 session and possibly other things the rest of session - but it seems like we do all dbt - but...

last week i got a call from a former employer wanting to have me come back to work - lots of churning emotions brought up from this - tried to kill myself twice while working for them - so called t and set up 2nd appt last week......

he was totally focussed on the job call and did not discuss the emotions at all. he even seemed to side step them when i brought them up. his main answer to me was that i needed an employment situation that was like a normal family with normal attachements and that that environment was more important for me than others because of what i have been through...........which is good to consider, but doesnt help with the emotions. he spent alot of time giving me examples from his profession and how difficult it can be to find that sort of situation.

i guess im just really confused. dbt is supposed to help me get in touch with my emotions/feelings , but he doesnt want to discuss my emotions? so - where does this leave things. I am so confused
