I feel anxious and naseaus. I'm still worried that I somehow ruined things between us. I know the next session will be so weird

But I can also see that this has more to do with my inability to confront people, say things I don't think they will be happy with , etc. than it has to do with T. I should have been able to say ...Hey wait a minute, I don't think you heard what I was saying... Or I agree with you on that but I wanted to talk about this today... I think I fear abandonment too much to do that or its an issue with authority.

How did you all survive week like this? Does it always get resolved when we confront T.?
Very good! You can resolve this! Your insight into it is very good. Face your fears and talk about this with your T and you will move forward in a big way on this issue.
