I used to lose tons of my sessions. And I asked T exactly what you asked...how is this going to work if I can't remember it? He said it would work. He said part of me was there, and part of me remembers. But it didn't FEEL to me like there was any way it could work.

But over time, as different parts have learned to trust T and told their stories, it HAS got better. I don't lose my sessions like I used to (I still do a little bit, but it's so much better), and I just feel better in my day to day life. I'm able to be more present, I feel less fragmented, I can cope so much better with emotions, I don't have to use bad coping skills.

It will get better. It was a long, slow, GRADUAL process for me, but when I compare me now to me 4 years ago, I can see the change.

You are doing just what you need to do.
