(((((((((((((((bether)))))))))))))))))) I couldn't agree more.
When I started therapy, I was hoping to just tell my story to someone, and free myself from the demons of the past.
It's turned into so much more. I had never been in therapy before, so I had NO IDEA what an important part the relationship would play. Honestly, for me, the relationship IS the the therapy. I am telling him the things I need to tell him, but in the context of a really wonderful, loving, safe relationship. It's not what I expected at all, but it's filling a need I didn't know I had, and teaching me lessons I didn't realize I needed to learn.
