((((safe hugs)))) <-- if you want them

i don't know the answer to that. we all do things on our own schedule. i personally am still in the phase where it's darn near impossible to talk about my feelings about it. even though T knows pretty much all of it, i still can't do the talking thing very well. of course, i can't feel the feelings in therapy at all. they come over me when i'm alone. T says that's because it's safer there.

i think it becomes easier with trust, though. i do think i'm making a lot of progress, and my T thinks so, too.

i think you should tell your T that you just need to know she's not going away, and that everything will be ok. that will help you feel safer and trust her more, i think. and you might have to ask her to tell you that again and again. i know i've had to have my T tell me over and over again things like that.

best wishes and warm thoughts!! keep posting any time you want to talk about it, ok? i'll be here.
