I think this understanding has taken away a protective layer I needed.

Hugs, Lost. I think it's totally normal. I've heard it called a "therapy hangover." I've felt really wiped out before after an intense session, where I struggle to do work, for example. Like all my brainpower has been used up.

That seems like a good question to ask R. I hope she can support you through that.
