Diving in - my therapist doesn't think I've accepted what happened to me.

She's said this a few times and I always thought she meant that I'm at peace with it - which I'm not. But last week she clarified and said that when she says acceptance she means that she doesn't think that I accept that what happened actually happened to me.

I don't even know what that means. What does that look like?

I guess I'm a bit pissed off - every week for the past two years I've gone in there and spilled my guts, told her things that I've never told anyone, been honest and real... Yet on some level I feel like she doesn't think I'm in touch with it.

I dissociate sometimes when it gets too heavy/too close - maybe she thinks when I'm not doing that anymore then I'm accepting and experiencing the pain more?

I'll ask her tomorrow but in the mean time... Anyone have any thoughts? Personal experience with this?

Cheers guys.
