I guess I feel childish about it all? Which tells me it's coming from my inner child. But, it makes opening up in the beginning difficult because I'm minimizing my feelings. We talked about it once (she pointed it out) but it's been a long time ago.
I guess I have a difficult time accepting my feelings. Any ideas about how to get past it? A year later it's still hard.  |
This could have been written by me. I have three weeks to a month between sessions and I have so many emotions and feelings that I want and really need to tell my T but I don't want to bother her and I can email but she never answers in depth. Its tough. I feel like some of my feelings are dumb and I shouldn't be feeling them.
I have been keeping two therapy journals. One is what my T says and one is what I say. It has helped my therapy. Maybe you could try keeping a journal?
