I'm so glad that your therapist was there for you at your next session, and that you were able to process what happened.
As for the affirmations, I just can't do that. I do know that it works for some people, but it feels kind of fake to me. Although, my usual negative self-talk isn't really getting me anywhere, now that I think about it. Hmmm. I guess that's something for me to think a little more about!
