You explained how it works perfectly, Skysblue. Your texting experience is similar to mine. I just hadn't thought about it like you put it. I think it really has given my therapist "real time" insight into my inner-workings, which has probably really helped therapy. In session she has always brought up anything potent that I've texted, and I think it's been really helpful because I don't think attempting to 'retell' a potent experience that had happened days earlier would work very well for me.
