Tired12,
I also have appointments 2 and 3 weeks apart and it sometimes is very difficult to deal with all the stuff that surfaces between sessions. (((Lots of HUGS)))
I have been very luck in that my T allows me to send her emails between sessions. She doesn't usually reply to them, but if I request a reply she will. For me just getting my thoughts down and then communicated (clicking the send button) is often enough to settle me somewhat. I am not sure why but even without a reply I feel better. Why, I have no idea.
Since you are working on very triggering things, could you ask your T if he/she could allow you some means to communicate between sessions?
Also, does your T know you are having this response? Sky's comment was very important (IMO). I went through most of my after session Fallouts alone because I didn't really do a good job of telling my T I was experiencing problems. I thought my T knew what was going on... but I don't think she really did until I "really" told her (i.e. not just mentioning it quickly then moving on to something else). Since I did that, things seemed to kind of change for the better.
