Does that seem like the kind of thing your T would say? Not a judgement or criticism of you but a simple observation that fear, while totally understandable, is not in itself a reason to avoid taking steps to make your life better.

Thanks for the reply. Really helps me to try to see it from a different perspective... which of course isn't always easy when we feel a bit hurt by a remark. I really think my T didn't have bad intentions. Maybe she said it without thinking, maybe she wanted to say something different than the way I 'read' those words.
I guess I'll try to bring it up later, figure out what this is about...
