Hello!

So, I've been in therapy since the end of January / beginning of February after a breakup, moving to a different country, future being turned on its head etc etc. I'm doing much better now. My therapist is great: Competent, articulate, considerate, doesn't just let me monologue for 50 minutes before I throw money at him but plays an active role. Sticks to boundaries, has a well set-up office. Sense of humour. In short, I'm very lucky. He knows I have a history of CSA which we touched on once, during which I was clearly uncomfortable, visibly dissociated. He says its my choice whether we explore it, but it may continue to affect me in the future and there may be events in my future that trigger it to impact me again.

Should I address it now? I'm feeling much better already, and I'm not sure whether talking about it will set me back horribly. I could just start bringing therapy to a close (as much as I hate to lose him, as a therapist and a person, he's been very clear that I need to make the choice that's right for me).

What's the right choice?! Any thoughts or comments greatly appreciated!
