Almeda, I am seriously so proud of you for getting to what looks like the core of a lot of what's going on.... for being brave enough to admit this, and spending the time to better yourself. I love the fact that you wrote a letter to your T, and you want to read him parts of it. I am thinking of doing this as well. Sometimes I bring in my journal, but the whole idea of a letter seems more powerful-- because it's meant to be for him. I agree with what you said... it seems that you are a point at this moment, in which you have the opportunity to make the next session extremely profound. That's a beautiful and scary feeling-- when stuff is just spilling over and it's time to release. If it is time for you, go for it.

Thank you so much Pinksoil. I'm nervous about reading some of the letter. I've mentioned that I had letters and sometimes bring in my journal and he never asks what any of it says. So, when I ask to read the letter, if I get a sense at all that he might be uncomfortable then I don't know...of course, maybe I'm projecting my nervousness on to him?

Oh and as far as the sex topic and what you can do...it only came up with me and my T because of my husband and our intimacy issues. We also did couples counseling with my T and discussed this topic at length. So I was able to get comfy early on.

This is one topic I can discuss 24/7 anyway. I'm sure it is another faulty coping mechanism or something...giggle
