If my T asked me to close my eyes, I think it would bother me. I'm not sure scared is the right word, but I would find it disconcerting. However, I often close my eyes on my own when talking about difficult things. I close my eyes for one of several reasons - to remember more clearly, to disconnect from my surroundings, so that I don't have to see T's reaction to my words, to focus more on what I'm saying. I'm trying hard not to close my eyes to disconnect or not have to see my T, but it's difficult.
