it really bothers me too. My current T will not say anything about personal things, and it gets in the way, as far as I'm concerned. I have tried to discover whether T has ever done any creative artistic work (besides cooking, which we can agree can be artistic, but that's not what I mean.). I want to try to deal with my artistic issues in therapy, but not knowing whether T has any clue what I mean is hard.... And I'm not even thinking of issues like letting go, or passing on, and it's BIG for me!

Never knowing T is hard for me. Drawing close to a blank slate just feels like a really big waste of my energy at this point. But then, I've been feeling pessimistic about therapy for a while now and have thought about moving in another direction, so hopefully some more optimistic people will chime in....

Sorry to be Debbie Downer here....I can sure relate...you are not alone, anyway!

Most I can do is offer hugs!
