I agree with pinksoil. I have really struggled sharing some of my dark parts. I recently shared some REALLY dark parts, and my T has not wavered even a little. At the moment I am REALLY scared of what I might be unleasing and I basically told my T...she should be afraid too. I observed her closely this week, I detected no fear or slightest withdraw in her. This has been huge.

Now of course I am fighting the urge to do a fulltilt purge. Not because I'm afraid that she can't handle it: but because I don't know if it the right thing for ME to do.

SAWE, I don't know if you should send it, talk about it, make a phone call, or sit on it. However, whatever you do with it your T will likely handle it and help you move forward.
