That would be pretty cool.

How interesting that I got it backwards. I need to study your comment more closely and see how it works both ways.
For me, I love the ease of conversation that I have with my T. Even if I'm in an emotional place she is steady for me. That safety is what makes the therapy so successful I think. And we have been successful. It took awhile for me to build enough trust but now that it's 95% I see only positive positive in the future. Even T said to me a few weeks ago, "I see this turning out very well for you."
But then we're faced with a new situation if I keep progressing. Finally I will need to quit therapy because there'll be nothing more to work on. Whoops - here I am worrying about the future. No need to 'cross that bridge yet'.
