I went and saw my T yesterday and after all the angst and heartache of the last few weeks, we ended up having an amazing session. Of course it started out with him saying, "...seems like you keep trying to get rid of me from your email." Well, ooops.

But in that same email I asked him some of the questions that we talk about sometimes here on PC like do we give them nightmares, or are our relationships real or not, and I shared with him some hurts. He seemed to sense somehow that I needed some healing. We ended up getting on the floor, and we just talked. Man, it was such a relief. I didn't dissociate even once, and we even talked about how vulnerable I get when I do go away, and how badly I don't want to. We even talked about God for a while and some other stuff. I only cried once.

I know that it can't be like that all the time, and that today was a cherished gift...but sometimes I think also that the harder we try, and the more honest we get, the more our T's will be willing to work with us and reach out a little further when we really need them.. I really needed the gift of healing today. And he reached out and gave that to me in a big way.

I even asked for and received a safe huggle back...

oh yeah..and he gave me homework...
well, back to the real world..lol

That sounds like such a wonderful and healing session. I am glad you have a sensitive T who wants to help you heal and is able to. Your willingness to accept the healing he offers is a big part of what made your session so successful.

so when those moments do come...where you are confused and have done some hard work in therapy... remember this moment... remember it with all your might

and know you are Moving Forward!

I'm glad you had such a nice session; if we could bottle those kinds up and save them forever, huh?
Thanks for this!

You know...I bet you will. I certainly wasn't expecting it, and it took a long time in the making..and a week ago I was ready to stop it all hurt so very much.

I guess that's why I didn't mind sharing it with you guys, cause it was that special, and I knew ya'll would appreciate just what it meant... I want the same thing to happen to each of us at just the right time, and when we will cherish and honour it for what exactly how magnanimous it will be...

I do know that I will indeed have to bottle it up deep inside and save it for all the hard times ahead...and sip from it lightly so it will last and last.

Soft bunny huggles,

Wysteria Blue
