Hey onlymedid. Thanks for your response. I guess I've been worrying about this for a few sessions now, I just haven't found the courage to talk to him about it. But yeah... Time to let him know my concerns. I'm really not sure... That I ever want to go there (with respect to him meeting them). I mean... If it happens spontaneously then can't be helped but I think I have reasonable control over switching in sessions and it is simply something that I'm not prepared to do if at all possible.

What I want... Is that when I get the urge to switch... I ask myself 'why? what do they want to say / do?' If I can figure that out then... I won't need to switch. That is my hope. I want to do things that way. Make me larger so there isn't a role for them.

I guess I was happy to talk about them to start with. Was happy to do the map. Mostly clinician's in the past simply ignored the issue. I was grateful that he kept saying that it was okay if they did want to say something and I was grateful that he took an interest in them.

But... I guess he has established that now.

And now... I just want some time to get to know him myself. I want to feel like it is okay if I want to say something and I want to feel like he takes an interest in me.

Thanks.
