The person who wrote this is compassionate and intelligent, and would never knowingly hurt someone here, but actually this can come across as "Just snap out of it!"
See, I dont read it that way at all. Its like therapy is there for me to get better and deal with things. I know what the issues are. So I treat them like a cold pool and dive right in. I trust T to handle any emotional reprocussions I may experience. But if I were to wait until I felt i was ready to wade into that pool, get adjusted to the temperature, therapy would take forever. I would find a way to back out of that pool again and again. Just seems more constructive for me to take the plunge.
