Maybe you could agree on a hand signal that means "stop" or "slow down". When I am home again I've often thought of making that kind of agreement with my T, but when I am in that room, never think to do it; thanks for the reminder.
Hope you are able to get to a peaceful place very soon.

Funny thing is...I did agree to have a hand signal and was so freaked out that I could not do it. I totally shut down or got into a sort of numb debate and that did not serve me well. I felt completely numb by the session's end. I am really dreading getting through another night like this. Thank you so much for your kindness.
