For the longest time I wondered if I saw my T in public would I recognize her? When I tried to imagine what she looks like, distinguishing features etc, I struggled a lot. Now I can create a visual image of her in my head, I notice what she is wearing, and when her hair has been highlighted. I figure this suggests that I am now looking at her more..LOL

During the brief exchange I had with my T about the drawing I shared with T, one of the first comments she made was about how incredibly detail the drawing were with the exception of the lack of facial details. She said this made sense to her...kind of showed my preference for keeping my distance from people.

I just find especially in therapy, the intensity of maintaining good eye contact is really hard to deal with. Not sure if it is shame, fear, or what.
