I cry in just about every session. RoboT doesn't typically respond. We just continue to talk through it, or he'll sit in silence for a moment to give me time to collect myself. I guess that's why our last session stands out to me. It wasn't bad that he was physically consoling me, but that it wasn't typical.

I'd lose my cookies if my T walked out of the room when I was crying. That's a me thing, I think. So many of my emotional neglect issues stem from the fact that I never had a safe space to express my emotions as a child. Walking out would be what my father would do, and yeah, that's at least 20% of the reason that I'm in therapy.

I guess that'd be preferable to some people, but probably not borderline/CPTSD/whatever is wrong with me.

As an idea, if you're concerned about Ts response, could you discuss with him how you would like him to respond?
