I really relate! Sometimes I am so jumpy and hypervigilant that by the time I get to therapy, I am ready to dissociate, detach, and snooze out (it's not atypical for me to get sleepy when I am overwhelmed). Sometimes I wish I could curl up like a cat in T's office because it feels so safe. I said that to him once and he said it would be fine if I fell asleep. That makes me feel really nice.

I'm glad you had that moment of pure safety, where you could fall asleep and it was all okay.
