wow hankster you have some really great insight-thank you so much for sharing it with us♥ we guess we can say in her defense,because we have only seen her less than 8 times,that shes really mostly clueless about our system and how we work,who is part of it,because we only see her once every 2 weeks. she keeps asking our permission to contact ex-counselor that we were with for 7+ years strictly for historical info but we havent given it-yet. she keeps encouraging us to allow the grieving process but truth be told we really just dont know how,and we told her as much. she said that anger is much easier because it keeps the pain hidden. but she also frustrates us because she keeps insisting that we have so much more strength and need to "use our system". yeah,right! we feel bad for asking for extra time because she does see us for free and also because she thinks going 2 weeks in between sessions is "good for us" but truly we cant figure out how!

I don't know if I have insight. I have studied DID quite a bit to try to understand myself, and have been in therapy forever. But this site has been a world changer for me. Do you remember when - now I can't remember his name, I think it was french - told us he used to go eat after therapy? I find the more I feel HEARD by T, the less likely I am to buy chocolate afterwards - and that's how you sounded to me when you said you felt like acid after your last session, like you felt you hadn't been heard. after the swimming lesson thing, T spent almost 5 minutes talking about him listening to me (ironic!). anyway, thanks, now I understand why current T doesn't understand what she's seeing - I think you ARE using your strength, but because she doesn't know you all, she doesn't see it, so she doesn't acknowledge it, and that is still painful. But we can see it from what you write here.

but we think you do have insight and we enjoy reading what you have to say.we do have some strength but not nearly as much as she thinks. we just sound like we are complaining now,we are sorry. just cant seem to shut the noise off inside and hearing ex-counselors taunts and accusations

(((Trinity))) I'm so sorry you have to go through this. You did nothing wrong. There are no "should haves". You feel what you feel and you are entitled to what ever feelings come up. I hope you are feeling a little better about this.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
