My T is frequently asking me "what did you hear right now" or "what were you hearing". So yep, I often misinterpret things. I am getting better at acknowledging it when he asks, and very occasionally have been able to ask, 'wait, what did you say" or "what do you mean by that".

I have reactions to words and phrases that he uses because they seem to mean other things to me, and he has even told me that he has discussed in supervision my sensitivity to language and how he can be more mindful of my needs. Weird!
