I keep wanting to journal, make false starts and somehow "forget" (that fear getting in the way again)... but my T only asked about it in reference to it as a tool that might help not as something he wanted to see ever
My T wants me to share more with her instead of getting my explanations later. She knows I am holding back, which I know I am, and I my take is she believes I am ready to get it all out there so that I am able to handle my illness in positive ways. She knows I am not telling her everything that is going on, which I am not, and I think she is trying to nudge me in a positive direction. It is just so hard for someone like me, who has never shared everything with anyone, including my husband, and I am 50 years old, married for almost 25 years, so I am good at keeping my own secrets.
