Is it normal to feel extremely triggered the day after therapy? I usually have a rough go at it the two days following my sessions. Is this just a way of processing things? I can't really explain in writing how I feel (I usually try to journal...) so I am left feeling anxious and kinda weirded out, if that makes any sense.

Yesterday I had to tell her what my "core beliefs" about myself were (she had me write them down)...I guess they are a bit negative so could that be something to do with it? I have to try to re-word them so they aren't so absolute and confining. Is the feelings I am having a response to trying to challenge what I have known for so long?

(I do know after I read the list I had made to her, I felt selfish, and kinda stupid, and a bit embarrased and afraid that she was laughing at me inside.)

Any input would be appreciated.
