I wish I could give you advice, or even some useful supportive words. I do know from experience that these wounds will heal. But that does
not make it easier right now.

It'd lower the anxiety between sessions, help me trust and feel more safer around my T, and it'd help with the emotional roller coasters that i'm going through lately.

That's a tough one. I would find it really difficult to do so, too. But as people tend to say on this forum, Ts like it when we state what we need... it's a completely unintuitive relationship in that way! I hope you will find a way to ask your T in your next session.
