Does anyone else ever become bratty/whiny/like a petulant child during a session? Kind of like rebellious and pouty, I guess? I feel really weird for ever asking this. But often I’m tempted to or even do it. ExT would call me out on it and tell me that I was way too old to be acting like that (I was 22-23 when I was seeing her) and that I needed to stop that behavior/it wasn’t going to get me the attention that I wanted. I feel like a freak, though, and this is definitely a product of my maternal transference issues with therapists. Curious to see what others have to say about this...
