This is me totally. Both your posts. I shut down right when I get in there....even though I don't want to. It is paralyzingly sometimes. I think this is why out of session contact is so vital for my situation and I think she knows it. I am painfully shy but I can email difficult things during the week and then she replies briefly and those things become my agenda. It has been a life saver for me. Maybe you can ask for something similar?
