I found the examples at the body both humorous and creepy out of the context of the therapy room...

The hand question made me laugh out loud here at work... but I have had Ts ask about how I was feeling when talking about something because I was either twisting a tissue to shreds... or twisting my hands...or scratching my palms... and in that moment I find it highly stressful to try to answer the question...

but if my T asked if my hand could talk what would it say... I probably would have either laughed or said could you stop twisting me and scratching me? It would really distact from the conversation.

my new T catches every facial expression,,,, every stress thing I do when I'm talking or she's asking questions... she asks a lot what does that face mean? it just raises my anxiety when I'm in there.
