It's as if I go back to being a child when sitting in the room with my T, constantly having to monitor what I say. Not saying certain things because I am afraid of her response, or frankly the adult me battling sounding completely rediculous for feeling a certain way.

Exactly, Hangingon.

about this >> I could try writing things down for her. Maybe that would help some.
I wonder. maybe it varies from one T to another. In the between time last time, I mailed my T something that I could absolutely not have told her aloud. When I went to see her, we were hardly seated when she brought out my letter and went right to that page, that paragraph, and started reading (aloud).
I asked her not to - made no difference, she was going to have this out and in a great deal of detail. I wonder if I will ever write her again? at least with this T, it don't seem to pay, as they say
