I worried about this a lot with PrevT. I didn't had the guts to ask her if she was annoyed by me. I don't know if she was. It just felt like it. Maybe I expected it, because of previous experiences with T. I never really talked a lot and T's and also group member would often have comments about that. Now I think that if I don't talk much then people will get annoyed by me.
I talked about this with current T today in session. She told me: if a T would feel annoyed by a client, then that T should look at herself. Usually it's something that is about T. A client should be able to tell what she wants to tell. There are usually issues that have been there for years and the clients should be able to talk about it of many times she want. The client should be able to be herself in sessions. If a T would get enough of a client (T doesn't want to see client anymore) then that T should take a good look at herself because I good T shouldn't get to get ''enough'' of a client. My T said that if she feels like she can't be the best T for the client and can't help the client anymore, she would be honest about that.
She told me something like this. I've tried my best to write down what I could remember. But it would be a good things to talk to your T about your feelings. You can tell or show what you've written down here.
