What exactly about the list was making you angry? Were you angry about the things on the list? Was the mere process of doing it making you mad?

I was angry about what I was writing on the list. Writing about those events triggered my feelings of anger. I wasn't mad about making the list itself.

Anger is also a function of autonomy in therapy. It is progress; the abilitiy to take an emotional stance that is different from T. Are you afraid at all of transference? Meaning... being afraid that if you bring the anger into session it will be transferred onto him?

My T said as I was leaving last time that I was making progress, so I guess he agrees. It hasn't occurred to me to be afraid of transferring anger onto T. I have shown him some anger in session, but not towards him, just displayed anger toward others in his presence, e.g. my husband. I haven't been afraid that I will transfer anger at my husband onto my T. Do you think that is coming? Do people tend to do that?
