she called my depression very stubborn, and that we were going to explore talkign about dating. omg. I was like "well that is terrible," which she said she knew i'd say.

i told her it felt like asking me to look for a rainbow when i am buried 10 feet underground.

it was weird. we were sidetracked by the whole i had to go to urgent care, probably have another kidney stone thing for awhle...but after last week's intense session on suicidal feelings, it felt so strange for her to bring up dating.

not sure how i feel about it all.
That's odd she was pushing you on that topic...Your rainbow image seems very fitting. I mean, it seems like there should be some steps in between there, going from suicidal to more stable, THEN maybe thinking about dating. And it seems it should be something you bring up, not your T.

Hope you're feeling better--did you go to urgent care?
