I have to take my own notes after each session, because I always dissociate afterwards, and I would never remember anything if I don't write it. Sometimes I think I need to get out my paper and pencil and write it down while I'm still there so that I can get it right, but I haven't gotten brave enough to try that yet. I shut down towards the end of a lot of sessions, and everything goes blank.

I'm sorry you had a hard session. Sometimes the hardest ones are the most productive though.
