none. *currently emotionally numb, or would be crying*, being that way would be "unprofessional" and "is something more considered a friendship type of relationship" and they "are here to help. and not to be my friend"....

but since shes her own private therapist, i would most def. ask her about it. growing up when i had private T's before and after the T's from cps(child advocacy center), they would give me their number to call anytime i wanted(granted they knew that i barely spoke, and texting wasn't an option back then, so they prolly knew i wouldn't be calling much lol..). lol, most of the time they would be the ones that would call me at random lol, but they knew "im okay" meant that my gma was nearby and i couldnt speak freely. so my T at that time (last one i had as a minor) would ask me questions that i could answer "yes" and "no" to... my gma caught on and got mad and i would get in to trouble for it after that. then i started telling my T "im okay" a second time around to mean "no, or im not good" and i would say "thats good" when i really meant "yeah" and "thats right". and "i dunno" would 97% of the time mean "id rather not say" or "i dont want to talk about it". we used to play connect 4 during therapy. and i would get bottlecaps candy at the end. id never heard of them prior to that. i saw her from around 15 until i was 18. i also learned that if i ended up making conversation while playing connect 4- that i would win because conversation distracted her(it worked on winning games later on with my bio mom too lol). but it could back fire, sometimes i would lose because i would be focusing on the convo and thoughts and trying to form words together to speak, that i wouldnt be paying attention.

sorry vyvanse kicked in, so i went on rambling before i knew it lol.
