Thanks a lot, T!

[sittingatwatersedge]

let me restate. I said, I'm sure I am your worst client and she said no.
and THEN I pushed for next to last and she said no.
there now, does that sound better?!

[sittingatwatersedge]

This was not the happiest of sessions. I went in feeling much like a therapy failure.

I did tell her about the dream I had, breaking into a house with my DH and the owner surprising us, and and how DH tried to get me to kill the guy and when I refused, he left me... I asked whether she thought that maybe the DH character was really her, a sort of authority figure who has taken me "into myself" to look around for precious, hidden things, in spite of all my trepidatons; and whether the "owner" showing up was my own resistance, which she has beaten on it so to speak in a professional manner, but it's up to me to put it away for good (kill it) and I couldn't do it... and then in the dream I was abandoned for this failure...

T was very displeased and would only say that these dreams I bring in are so negative... she said, when you interpret an event IRL, SAWE, it's always negative... and I tried to lighten the moment by saying, "always, T? isn't that what CBT calls black and white thinking?" but she wasn't having any of it. Yikes.

[pachyderm]

((((SAWE))))

[granite1]

ok now i would have laughed at the cbt thing and i think my T would have also unless it was used to avoid a more serious problem and to deflect

Oh she knew it was me all right.
She fished up a memory of something I told her about maybe two years ago... I couldn't believe it. Gosh, do you suppose they really do LISTEN?
