Mouse, that sounds like a really good session, even though painful. ((((hugs)))) I agree you are really brave to face this stuff as it comes up with your T.

Talulah, it's interesting to me that you said you had been angry at your T also. I've read that from others here too. Mouse, I'm not trying to sidetrack your thread, but I wonder, am I the only one who has never been angry at her therapist? I have had 2 therapists and was never angry in session with either one. I don't do anger well at all (or know how to experience it, really) so I guess it's no surprise I also would never be angry at T. I admire everyone who can just let themselves be angry.
