Wow you have such courage
You called her!

I don't understand therapy much and how it all works-- but I do know I had a therapist that did the "silence" thing and I bolted too!
I hate that! for me -- silence is NOT golden, when in therapy--

I don't feel safe, I don't know what they're thinking, I don't know what to expect, I can't decipher the mood. (it's like I'm sitting in a pitch dark room and told to RUN to the door! -- I could trip over something, gash my leg, run into a wall, fall over on my head!-- all sorts of unsafe things could happen... that's what silence in a session feels like to me)

Now, I have a T. that is very engaging-- there's rarely silence for more than
5 seconds-- I like that so much better! It feels a lot safer to me. my mind tends to go to the negative/paranoia when silence abounds-- that just makes things worse, at least for me.

Maybe the silence is just what you need though-- to progress?...

I wish you much luck with your next session.
