Hugs, Scarlet, I'm glad you were able to share it. That took a lot of courage. And it sounds like L was really understanding and supportive. I can also understand your triggered reaction. Can you reach out to her about how you're feeling? After I told Dr. T about the thing in session, I think I reached out to him that night to make sure he was still OK with it, and he reassured me. I've done that for some other things I've shared/confessed as well. Now sometimes he'll just say at the end of session, "I'm OK with everything you shared, but you can check in later if you need to."
