had t tonight. a big step for me was letting her see the damage. to make myself i went in with my sleeves already rolled up on my sweater. then proceeded to hide them anyway. but over time i let them be seen more and more and then didn't try to hide them again.
T said she's a big fan of Belleruth Naperstek and her work (of which I also have the PTSD tape) and t is ordering the trauma pack and asked BR specifically if t could make a copy of them for me (which I know she's allowed to already). I was eying that pack for some time now. That is nice of t. I may well be her only trauma patient. Her speciality is mostly related to health and helping ppl deal with life threatening/debilitating diseases (of which mine sort of leans, but it is the trauma that led to my adrenal fatigue that is re-scripting my life, work, and diet). I know i'm her only (if not first) DID patient.
Guess i'm glad it is still cold here... i'll be wearing long sleeves for a *long* time.
