Today I shared my diary with my therapist with some detailed memories of abuse I went through. It was the first time I EVER shared with anyone details of these memories. I don't know what I was expecting, but she literally didn't say anything. It was near the end of the session, so I didn't expect her to say a lot or for it to even lead to a discussion, but I thought she would have at least said something reassuring and/or comforting, or at the very least a reaction, as it was my first time sharing those details, and she knew that and how hard it was for me.
Has anyone experienced this in therapy? I feel so ashamed and disgusted now; like maybe I shouldn't have opened up like that. And of course I don't have another session until next week. Ugh. I want to reach out and e-mail her, about how that made me feel, but I'm afraid of what her response might be, or that any response would just be an fake one.
