I remebered feeling safe enough in her office to have fallen asleep when I had been there, so I pictured her sitting in a chair in my room. I finally managed to sleep a bit (still only about an hour an a half). Is it weird that I needed to picture T there to feel safe enough to sleep?
I feel like the weird one. Once, when I was inpatient, I was so overwhelmed I asked to go in the "green room." ( The padded room.) I knew it would be soft, safe and quiet. I was surprised it resembled a womb, to me. So that's where I went in my head...T's womb...safe. I slept.
Thanks for this!
