For these questions I simply restated by response.At one point she just said one of the event for me. She wasn't mean, judgmental, impatient but it still echoed in my ears. I know again maybe I am being childish... but hearing it when it is related to me.. was just unbearable. I would have no problem saying these words or discussing this topic when it related to someone else. But when it relates to me it is just .. unbearable for some reason. I don't know why I am so intolerant and judgmental of myself. The thing is ... It didn't really matter that I didn't actually say the words; just being asked to focus and think about these details was overwhelming enough.
In email not I didn't just say I quit. I sent an email after the session indicating that I'd gotten nauseous and physically ill, just getting dish washing liquid on my hands while doing the dishes. I was freaking out. Is this what this type of therapy session is supposed to do to a person? Where is the healing in that? This is why I am confused and not trusting the process. Maybe I'm wrong for expecting a reply of some kind but .. if a patient of mine contacted me after a treatment session reporting that they are concern because there had been a dramatic increase in their symptoms. I think I would respond to them and at least say something encouraging..."Hey this is part of the treatment or this is common adverse event, but you'll be fine"... keep the faith I, know what I am doing, ... write the %#@&#! down and we will talk about it next session". Then I sent another email at 2 AM were is said.. I think it's time for me to stop. I don't know maybe I am just being a 10yr old here.

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> I DID NOT DO THIS! And I should have. In fact last session she told me she wanted me to tell her to F'off if I thought she was crossing the line. But just like in my childhood, I had trouble seeing my boundary was being crossed until after the session and the fallout hits me. (Damn... I didn't realize this until just now.)

Was it stupid because it made you feel bad?
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> Well ,YES!

... now i guess the stupid stems from not sticking up for myself and telling her to stop pushing.

Are you certain your T did this to you deliberately?
