I think he doesn't talk a lot about the SI so I don't fixate on it and early because it's related to the other stuff we are doing in therapy--it's a symptom of how much is stirred up for me. So he focuses on helping managing the other stuff, I guess.
I think that's how my T views it, as it's a reflection of how overwhelmed and hurt I am right now. So he tries to help me manage that stuff.
