This may be weird- Anyone ever experience this?

Sometimes in therapy past my PrevGoodT appeared bigger to me. Other times she seemed smaller. Other times she seemed normal.

It scared me. I was never able to tell her what I was experiencing. Like I had no words.

Anyone ever feel like that?

Not sure I really ever felt how you did. Was it actually in session? I remember in the beginning she seemed reaalllly small to me (i remember feeling like I was an Amazonian woman), and then a few sessions in she randomly became 'normal' or 'equivalent' size.

Yes, it was in session. It happened a few times.

I was always surprised when I noticed that I am taller than previous T. She always seemed a lot taller than she is to me. At times I felt like I just came up to her waist. Maternal transference FTW...

I think I understand. I had some really powerful visions regarding my former T. I used to image her floating above my bed when I was going to sleep, and one time when I was in session I imagined a tiny version of myself curled up in my lap. She always had an immense presence so she always felt big to me.

Yes! It's all about transference and projection. My T always shocks me when I give her a hug at the end of appointments because she is so much more tiny than I mentally imagine her.

Yes, but it didn't bother me. In my eyes, Madame T was about eight feet tall. But sometimes smaller.

I assume it's a facet of attachment.

Yes, this happens to me! I told my T once and he said it was to do with changes within me.

I think it kind of has to do with how young, and how small, I'm feeling.

PS I'm actually taller than him...

Something happened to me similar and I told my t. When I've regressed to a younger state, she appeared more adult (taller and stronger) She also said I appear like a little girl to her in the same respect.

When I've been angry she appeared further away (more shorter?) as I was trying to make myself bigger in statue to cope with my anger. Does that make sense?

RQ that totally makes sense.

Yes - all the time. In fact when I remember sessions, which are always hazy, he appears differently in my memory. For example, one time he seemed to overreact to something I'd disclosed. In my memory of this session, he got up hastily from his chair and I can see him get up and go to get something and I'm super scared. Only he never got up in that session idk....don't ask me how I know for sure he didn't...it doesn't make sense

Other times, my memory is of him far away and it's dark. In other ones, he is super close to me and there's a warm light/glow. I also have pictures of places that almost superimpose with the T room in my memories.....I'm not entirely for sure why this happens, but it does.

As far as how I see me (?) I don't think I'm there half the time /:
