At one point i felt really nauseous, started feeling disconnected, like i was in a fog,i kept staring at something. I could hear her talking but she seemed so far away. I wanted to run out of the room. She asked me to stay but i left because i just had to get out of here. I'm so angry that she kept on pushing even though she could see i was having a hard time. I'm also embarrassed that it happened in front of her. I just felt so weak and so poweless. Is it normal for it to happen during T? What do you do when it happens? I know it was probably stupid of me to leave when i was like this cause i had to drive back home and it was hard driving when i felt out of it.

Maybe you could explain to her that it is too overwhelming to be pushed about the dissociation and it leaves you feeling unsafe when you leave. Ask her if a good middle ground would be to discuss it as far as you can, but when you feel it's too much, that you will tell her and either go more slowly or take a break from the discussion for the rest of the session.
