Thanks, skysblue.....I am definitely going to bring it up during my T session tomorrow. T asked me to make a mental note of where we left off on Monday....and I have...but I do feel it's important to address this in the interim.

I would've had an opportunity to explore it in group T if I would've voiced what I was feeling in the moment (the whole purpose of gestalt therapy), but I was too scared. My fear wasn't so much in addressing it as it was that I didn't want it to lead to a connection to past trauma, as I have not shared that in group T - yet. It's a step I just haven't been able to bring myself to take. I would much rather do that work in individual therapy.
