I have an obsession with always knowing exactly what objects are behind me, they cannot move. T changed a painting on the wall in back of me a few weeks ago and it made things hard again. It is a beautiful painting but it's not THE painting.
I totally get it!

I feel "safety" with my counselor, as far as being able to really say how I feel and speak without feeling like I'm going to say the wrong thing. I feel like I can talk with him about anything, and not get in trouble. It feels pretty foreign to me too, almost to the point of it not being real. Sometimes he doesn't seem real. I would guess that would mean that a part of me doesn't really feel trusting toward him, or that I don't know how. ? Hum. I'm not sure.

It is unsettling to me also when things get changed around in my counselor's space. It takes a little while for it to settle in. He recently changes locations and his office. I think it's been 4 weeks. Maybe. It's starting to feel ok, but it doesn't feel like the space I met with him before.
