(((All the Girls)))....I see a common thread here.. T's are human and want what is best for us..but being human and presumably "not DID"..they show and exhibit what many of us cant do..or have not learned to do..or our system's doesn't allow us to do...express appropriate emotion in context to the situation without being drawn into a hurt from the past...and you did fine..you talked it thru...wow..thats amazing work

My T confided that after a poem I wrote, one which I posted in the creative forum here..he had nightmares, had to get up to shake it off..he said in his 30 years as a therapist he has never done that..well made me feel so bad..like I had hurt him..which was the very last thing I would ever want to do..so again it sounds as if alot of us can relate to our "T"'s humaness...just not our own..maybe beause we were made to feel less than one from our abuse histories..

There is a whole lot of wonderful information and support in this thread..and I am so glad that you shared it..you are a very special human being and I am sending lots of TLC your way..hope you are feeling a better..((ATGs)....

(Gentle Hugs) if its ok...
