And to Sannah and Granite much love back! I don't know what I would do without you all.

awe thanks

I agree with your T - we so often make things bigger in our minds, and there's always the fear of T's reaction and both of these combined can make talking about it feel impossible. But therapists have heard all sorts of stuff, and even if an issue should arise, they know to take it to their own counseling or to a supervisor. But don't count on T having this kind of reaction - sounds like yours knows their stuff.
