zoo, I'm impressed with what you accomplished in your session in just half an hour!! You did good!! I think it's great that you have another appointment tomorrow and I hope you can work towards a resolution with your T. I hope that your T will really try to HEAR what you are saying to her. It doesn't seem like she is; it almost seems like she has already decided what you need and what her role is. I hope that she is willing to listen to the way you feel and tell you that she is sorry for making you feel so bad.

still swirling in my head is the idea that this is too broken to fix. I don't know if I'm trying to fix it because it's worth fixing or if I'm just afraid to let it go.
In regards to your thinking above, would you be able to ask your T that question? I don't want to confuse you, but I stayed with my former T (as you probably know since I'm a broken record about it--sorry) for about 7 years. Finally, at what would become my final session she said "I can't change the way I am". She was teary-eyed. She did therapy a certain way and it stopped helping me but I didn't want to let her go. I think your gut will tell you if you can fix it or not.
Thanks for this!
