I really hope you can go to your session, and that you can work this out between you, because I know how much these ruptures and inconsistencies can really affect our mental health. Take care of yourself, and hugs if wanted.

Yes, physically uncomfortable crossed my mind, too.I'm fairly sure she meant uncomfortable with the emotional aspect, but come to think of it...she may well have meant physical. That's rather amusing and puts quite a different spin on things, doesn't it?

It is not only possible, but probably likely, that I am skewing things. I wish I could tell. Well, I know I am to a degree, anyway. I wish I could "measure" how much is me, how much is her perception and delivery. Guess that's where writing down my thoughts could help.

I have decided, based upon the feedback on this thread, to go to my session tomorrow. If it were not for this thread I likely would have cancelled. I know people on this subforum have plenty of experience with therapy and that really helps me today.
