(((((((((((((((Wantingtoheal)))))))))))))))))) Nothing wrong said here at all.

I think it's pretty common to have stuff like that happen, but I also wonder if I think it's pretty common because it has happened to me too many times to count, lol.

My advice would be to trust the therapist, but also just keep going to your new T and continue to figure things out. It's a very hard journey, but there are also those "aha" moments that really help offset the hard parts sometimes.

As I've gotten more awareness, I've been able to talk to other people more. Most times, I've been the only one surprised at what I find out. Generally, imo, we are the ones more in the dark than anyone else.

In the beginning, I just thought everyone was tricking me when they would say I'd done or said things, etc. I knew I hadn't done or said them (because I did not have the memories). I think sometimes I almost even convinced people that they were the ones that didn't know what they were talking about. I was so convincing (because I truly believed it) that people have told me now that they thought they had lost their mind because I was so sure that it made them wonder, even though they had evidence or other people who knew.

As I got more understanding and awareness of what does really go on for me, I realized that what people were saying could actually be true. So, then I started listening with a bit of an open mind and pieces of the puzzle started coming together. (I'm not even talking abuse stuff at all, I'm just talking about every day behaviors and situations from when I switched and didn't realize it.)

This disorder, to me, is hard to accept. Even after I think I've accepted it, there are times when I realize I haven't. And apparently there are still many parts that don't even know any other part exists. I kind of think it's normal for this kind of thing.

I think it's great that you've allowed the two Ts to talk. You can tell your current T that you do not want to know details or what they talked about right now, but it will give your current T more information and more information is always good.

Keep going. Life can get better. Take gentle care,

PS. Sorry if I babbled on about anything that wasn't pertaining to your post.
