A week ago I had a couple of triggering moments with men I came into contact through work.

I was telling T and I was definitely in that "burning house" place, and T said when I was talking about how I didn't fight back as a child when I was being abused and that just by simply by replying to these men they will know that! "

T then said" but you're not in that situation now"

In that moment of her saying that, I felt like she was denying my experience in the moment, but I also felt "that's true"

That statement by T has been playing over and over in my mind. It's like an arm is reaching down deep inside of me and trying to pull me into the present. Unyet I hear it as a scream of anger.
I haven't told T how I felt about her saying that. Or how I've interpreted on 2 levels.

Maybe the anger is my own anger at myself.
I'll try and tell T today about it.
