You can say whatever you are comfortable with. Sometimes things take time. There are things that I am still struggling to talk about- thankfully my T is really patient and believes in pacing, so she’s gentle. You might find it easier to open up as you continue to work with your T. Just because you don’t feel ready to talk about it now, and even if it feels like you will never feel ready, things can always change! Hang in there and just take whatever little steps you can to help yourself feel better.
