I know for me it was unbearable many times. I think even if I'd gone everyday there's still those times when it felt unbearable.
I'm sorry you find it difficult to ask for extra sessions. The only way around that is....to spit it out.
It's hard and there is no getting round that. I guess the only consolation is you will get to see T. Unlike the rest of your life when there was no help on the horizon?
Can you journal? That was a help in the beginging.

Is it about something more than feeling the feelings? I've read some of the neurological stuff about therapy, and it suggests that the emotional support from the T is helpful. Maybe just feeling the feelings alone is not enough?
I know you said you went once a week for the first year, I was wondering how you found that.
Maybe when I get to know my T more I will find it easier to ask.
