It is the weirdest thing.

I keep everything to myself and always have. I actually knew immediately that this was a case where I could not handle it on my own and was very forward in asking for help. I didn't wait at all. My issue is that I find it near impossible to put my thoughts into words and speak them. It takes so long to form a coherent thought in T.

Opening up to T has been a long process and my T actually left to pursue other ventures this month. So I am starting with a new one in the new year. I hope that process of opening up doesn't take nearly as long as the first time.

BTW.... I sent you a message. I hope you don't mind.

I have the social anxiety too. I know exactly what you mean about it being so hard to get a coherent thought out in T - in addition to that my previous T really didn't understand me at all, mostly due to the situation I put myself into by trying to cope by myself (with an abusive partner in the mix) for too long. She was very frustrated with me...

I'm sorry that your T left That doesn't make things any easier.
