I actually called him about how miserable I have been feeling this week and today in particular. The yelling thing was only a piece of it. He said he had never felt yelled at. He does not dislike me and I am not his least favorite client ever, and he does not dread our appointments. Of course, then he wanted to talk about the deeper issues involved, and he had some really brilliant insights about why the depression is so bad right now, linked to what we are working, that just made total sense, AND gave me a huge insight into why the depression persisted so long, reoccurs so easily, and is so hard to shake. I am not sure I know what the answer is, even with this new insight, but I think finding the answer might get easier now. This man is really freaky good at what he does.
