I am very glad.

Went to the one hour session yesterday, and my T explained she had meant that I could come anyway and we'd figure something re the money. And we did, she can offer an hour a week for the cost of the room rental, which is £20 so I can manage that. We did an extra session today as things have been all crazy this week, and it was really hard to bring up but I told her I didn't agree that I had been abusive, that it's a word that packs a punch, and we straightened that out. She said she was using the word in a very different way to me being a monster, she didn't mean that, just that what I had said had been hurtful as if I was doubting her care, and was not representative of our relationship.

I think I asked all the questions I needed to around the issue, which I suppose is to do with resolving conflict really.

Yesterday, she sent an email liaising with the crisis team I have been in contact with recently, and with my pdoc. And got some information for me of some niche hotlines that I hadn't heard of. I felt very taken care of, like finally the support that I need might be there.

Tomorrow I am going to a holistic health place who give people with chronic illness different complimentary therapies such as acupuncture. So between it all, and with finally starting to turn to friends more - I feel the support net is growing. It seemed to take getting extremely distressed to finally be able to accept support from people other than my therapist.

I luffs my T

Excellent!!!!! So happy that you took a huge step in addressing those communication issues with your therapist. Believe it or not, but this is a milestone. You had a crisis and conflict with a trusted person, you stood up for yourself and look how things turned out!! Outstanding!!
Thanks for this!

Thanks guys

Just back from the holistic health centre for my assessment, and now have a massage book for next week. Looking forward to it, I have never had a professional massage before.
