T Sayings

haha mine too

And "your thinking something... What is it?"

Mine says, "Whatcha thinking?" or sometimes, "Where are you?"

My t always said that too and always asked what I got out me things, I was like, why is she so cynical all the time

"You are the captain of your ship"

(I know, T, I KNOW!!!! It's all up to me. Gaaahhh!!!!!!!!!!!)

"Where did you go just now?"
"You are beautiful and talented."
"Whoa!" (I like this one a a lot cuz it makes me feel like I got through her professional persona and touched the human inside for a second before she covers it back up!)
"Not everyone is brave enough to do this type of work. It's hard work. And you are very good at it."

"where are you right now?"

"cool! Yeah! All right"

I know this thread is a couple of days old, but I just discovered it

My t always says to me "You're in charge", which sometimes I like and sometimes I hate!

Another thing she always says, after she asks me a question ...."and you're not allowed to say I don't know!!" Because I always say that even though I have an answer!! I used to say I don't know and then she would say "if you did know, what would it be?" but now she just skips straight to telling me not to say "I don't know". I recon she says that at least once every session!

I did figure out one thing the woman repeats: You are not crazy. Just eccentric.

"this is temporary".
"you felt better before, u will feel better again"

"i care about you"

"don't edit"
"love is the key"

"I need you to REALLY look at what's going on, is that the reality of the situation?"

I can't even tell you how many times I hear this.

i dont think mine really has any that i have noticed but i am sure she will as soon as i talk to her more and she responds lol.

i dont think eccentric is a bad thing at all stop

"we can talk about this in our next session."

lmao.

I know it's rly old, but I gotta share what my t just wrote:

You have taken quite a tumultuous journey and I am glad that you have kept writing, stayed in touch and are now on the other side. Know that I will keep working with you unless you fire me.

I know she won't leave me. That means the world...

"Looks like we're out of time for today ........."

No ****, sherlock!!!! I'm leaving as fast as I can ....

"you felt better before..."

"You are you!" and "We have to stop for today."

Surely "eccentric" is an unambiguously positive charcterisation? Or is that just me?

Some of these saying are straight from the book of cheeseville!

I swear i would have to tell my T NOT to say "and how does that make you feel?" "what are your tears about?" or repeating what i say "so you feel sad? uh-huh..." etc omg bleugh!!!

I'm not really aware of my T over-repeating anything.

Sometimes it has been combined with challenging so I am not certain it goes to positive. Possibly not negative. I would mostly go with neutral.

i would love to be described as challenging... gotta give them a run for their money!

"You are NOT your mother"
"I'm not going anywhere"-- (except, of course, on all those **** vacations! )

And I have told her, when she asks the very cliched "how's that workin' for ya?", to never say that to me again! Of course, maybe she would say that just to see a little anger from me?!

"go into your body and see where you're feeling that."

Sometimes when I get quiet and lose eye contact, he gives me this half smile and says, "Where did you go just now?" or "Where are you, what's going on?"
