Dear Fuzzybear,

I'm sorry you wrestle with this problem, too. I'm not sure how this thread came up again after so many years! But I did get this straightened out with that counselor. He was very, very patient with me. I did a lot of writing, which was helpful, both in and out of session. Then he helped me work through why it was so hard to talk, and gradually over time, I became better at talking with him. This was years ago - he moved away two years ago, sadly - but I remain so grateful to him for his help.

Fuzzybear, I think we have some things in common sometimes. I know communication is hard for us both at times. I hope someday, too, you'll find someone to speak with or work with who is similarly patient, kind, peaceful, caring, and gentle and will help you work through these sorts of issues.

Thinking of you,
ErinBear
