Thank you. I don't see the progress as much as others see it. That's the problem.

Yes, I trust my T but it's still hard to feel proud of myself.

Thank you, sweepy. I never considered myself strong. Maybe I'm stronger than I realize.
[QUOTE=IndestructibleGirl;3968793]Definitely be proud. Savour your success!!! Think of how much effort you've put in Rainbow

I think I've worked hard on my relationship with my T, and that is what I was referring to in my email, but I'm not sure if that is a reason to feel proud or not. I don't know if
that's what my T meant by making big changes in my life. I told her in the session and that is what I think is an important change.
[QUOTE=Anne2.0;39690ree with her that you have made big changes in the way that you relate to people, as everyone can see here on this board. But even if you weren't part of this board and I hadn't seen these changes first-hand, I would say that T's aren't in the habit of offering meaningful compliments (note that she didn't say, "great job, rainbow!"
And there I will also add that taking what people say at face value is a good thing. If someone suggests that what you'd done deserves some self-pride, it most likely does.[/QUOTE]
Thank you. I know that I don't get triggered so much in my threads anymore. I assume that's what you mean. I have to learn how to accept compliments, I think. My first
reaction is "me"?
