How crazy is this....I seem to have shut down a bit with T. Didn't contact him at all between our Thursday and Monday appointments, and suddenly just felt this "disconnect" about 2/3 of the way through our session today. AND have reverted back to some seriously unhealthy coping behaviors.

I am totally not blaming this thread for it....but I think some part of me heard "slow down" and I responded with "shut down". Blah. Therapy is so hard. It's this constant cycle of learn to trust, open up, get afraid, shut down, repeat, repeat, repeat, endlessly.

Glad my T is patient
