Thanks! Yeah, I think that there's a lot of stuff I'm uncertain of (and my therapist said it was okay/I wasn't stupid for being uncertain about things which meant a lot to me. I guess that's another thing I'm wondering about/definitely want to work on: why do I basically think I'm stupid/naive/don't know anything?), but it's mostly working on the stuff I am certain of that's enough to make me feel like I'm finally getting somewhere. (And getting to vent about some of my family members felt good too. I guess the downside was that I started basically bawling and ranting the whole time during therapy but I guess that's kind of a given sometimes. And I got to tell her another piece of the flash I uncovered which was feeling stupid/ashamed in that flash that I didn't fight back or say "no" or realize what was happening to me, where she told me it wasn't my fault. Heck, hearing that how I was treated at school by some authority figures -- which I know for certain happened -- wasn't my fault...that was reassuring to hear)
But yeah, finding ways to manage my anger and such...it feels like I am getting somewhere, even if I'm not certain where that somewhere may be.
