I am often having a hard time talking in therapy lately. Some hard times are coming to the surface. I find that my system and I are reaching for a pen and paper to write it out, or my little ones draw it. It helps a lot when I can't get the words to come out of my mouth.

I email and text often. I feel like I get more done that way then I do when I try to "talk". But that is a goal of mine, to get it to come out. To me, saying it orally makes it more real, connected to me, something I can't put space between.
