Hi all,
Even though I'm now back to doing therapy in person, the fallout from working virtually over the summer continues.
When I had my first session back face to face on WSPD, I asked R what her recollection was regarding where we left off in July.
'I know you didn't want to talk about Steve stuff over the break...so I guess we're heading back into that space?'
We had one session to talk about the new 'Steve stuff' before we moved online.
I explained the facts at the time, but R has yet to acknowledge the impact of this information.
I would appreciate hearing her say something to the effect of 'I'm sorry you now know this.' or anything that indicates a level of understanding...but having to ask for it feels weird, when it has always been a given in our relationship.
I'm having extreme difficulty with the sense that she's forgotten this destabilising information.
This hurts - please bear this tenderness in mind in your responses.
Many thanks,
Lost
