Thanks for all the insight! I am surprised by the spectrum of answers: some of you saying that you email daily to others saying that you don't ever do that.
The emails did do a lot of good as I feel that the therapy has been transformed by them at first. It was a calmer, more composed way to express what I feel or even to answer the questions we were discussing in sessions. I already mentioned it before but I find it very difficult to put my thoughts together in the one designated hour so I felt furstrated when I was leaving sessions at first because they conversation didn't go in the direction I wanted it too. Talking about the content of the emails was not easy as a lot of the times those were things I coulndn't say out loud. Over the course of 2.5 years I've learned to speak about what I write.
At some point I lost the heatlhy balance and have only recently started using it as stress relief or a place to vent.
