But that isn't "reality". That's your thinking taking over. Try to focus on the actual reality that things went well last week and they will probably go well again this week.
Thanks for this!

hi Granite!

If you find it hard to remember what T said in yr last meeting, you might go look at your post - you did a wonderful job of relating a lot of what went on.

Please go gently, and see if you can divert yourself from worry.
Thanks for this!

The suggestion to re-read what you posted about your T and her words to you last time is good. Maybe that will help you focus on the reality of how good things were then and how good they can be going forward.....a new reality with hope and care and trust in it!
Thanks for this!

I can relate to that Granite. I am much more comfortable with negative feelings and emotions over positive ones.
Thanks for this!

Have you ever thought about going twice a week, granite? I had a really, really hard time holding on to the connection too, and going twice a week helped a LOT.

Thanks for this!

granite remember, your T said she cares about you. She said that she is not angry with you. She said that she trusts that you will be able to do the work. Just try to give a tiny bit of that trust back.

Hold on to that, granite, and let it become stronger and more real in your mind, stronger than the fear or worry.
