I have been noticing a pattern whereby I go through some type of turmoil in the days following my sessions but it always seems that by time my next session approaches I am able to "put myself together". It then seems stupid to me in session to talk about things that happened serveral days ago if I am no longer experiencing those feeling in the present session.

I don't know if this is some subconscious attempt to protect myself or from the habit of always projecting a certain "successful/happy" image to the outside world.

Right now I'm in a pretty dark place and have been for the last few days but I know by time Thursday comes around I probably won't feel like this.

Does this happen to anyone else or does anyone have insight or recommendations?
