I am in the early stages of therapy. It helps me to feel safe. I am learning (slowly,ever so slowly) that I can trust my T. I am learning that the issues that present themselves today are due largely to my childhood experiences. I am learning that it is okay to feel what I feel and to not intellectualize so much...that, by the way was a big ah ha moment! So yeah...in my opinion therapy is helpful..it is a process and it takes timmmmmme!!! My T tells me that I am sometimes inpatient with the process
