thanks especially for replying at this hour!

well, idk, I'm right on the edge between thinking t is probably right and thinking I needed him to support me more. All he said is to be curious about the other person's perspective, and that he thinks there's usually some truth in it. If the other person had given me a hard time, being curious about her perspective instead of focusing on defending myself could have been a bad idea I guess though.

Since I only go every two weeks, I never have time to bring up all the stuff I could from previous sessions and the new things that come up. But I guess it's likely this will still be at the top of my agenda in 2 weeks.
