MIMIME,

I am really glad you have reached a point where you can accept this level of nurturing from others. It is nice to hear stories of individuals who have regained things that were stolen from them by others. As a person who still struggles with touch and accepting direct attention from others, your description of your session sounds incredibly intense but very healing. I think it was really cool that your T shared that she was simply responding to what you needed at that moment, and wasn't just following some treatment protocol. This seems to make it more of a real connection to me. It is great that you are learning to not just tolerate this level of closeness, but are actually able to accept in and truly feel comforted by it.
