That was a big issue for me with current therapist -- I could not risk another drive home in flashback land. I was sucidual at that time to begin with and I knew digging into the pain fear and self hate would be hard. Anyway she never ends a session without asking me if I am in an ok place or need a bit more time. Unless it is pretty clear I am in an ok place.

I love your quote -- it is so close to what I have felt with therapy -- just clean up the trash and leave me alone.
