Whenever T says something I don't understand I ask him to explain until I do understand it. Countertransference is a normal occurrence. My T has said on occasion that he is feeling "dreamy" or "fuzzy" and he can't connect with me. Then we talk about what I am feeling or what is going on in my head. I don't think there is anything wrong with this kind of sharing. But I do think you should ask her what she means by her statements because they are causing you to worry, and you shouldn't have to worry! .

What are these? I didn't know there were two models.

First of all I don't think she is right. She may be referring to the recently known environmental triggers (like marijuana use) but as far as I know they do not rule out the genetic predisposition. Hmmmm, and what do they have to do with DID?
Maybe she didn't understand what you were saying. It sounds like a misattuned session. Maybe you can take it more slowly next time and focus on just the most important aspect.

What I am interpreting from her is that she is not comfortable with me / thinks I am lying ??

Why would she think this? It sounds like a projection. But I think your are right about her struggling to connect.
Ugh. Therapy is so hard sometimes. I hope you go back and persist. It takes a lot of courage to do what you are doing!
