I loved that, especially as he always asks me to say things spontaneously and to not think about them....

Is it common to feel great about arguing with a T? I guess the worst thing is that eventually I felt very safe at the session but I felt the safest when he was almost yelling at me, it was like "oh, he is angry, so he actually feels something - does it mean that he cares?! " I know, probably it's not the healthiest feeling ...
Argue? No. Disagree? Yes. We're respectful though. Even if there is frustration, the conversation doesn't get mean or cold...there is still a lightness to it, if that makes sense.
