Yesterday I had a very tough session and I did my usual of avoiding talking about what I really needed talking about...
I almost lost my T yesterday but she is still willing to work with me even after she got that really nasty email from my other part...She read the email to me and I broke down crying and before I knew it I started telling her things that I had avoided in the past...To say it, to feel the emotions behind it was excruciating but ya know what?...Today is the first day in a couple of months I haven't been depressed...
I am being my old silly goofy self and it feels GOOD!...

So was it worth going through what I went through yesterday...yep it was...I was thinking this morning, the longer I put off talking about the hard stuff the longer the pain is drawn out, but if I share it and talk about it than that pain lessens.....

I have 2 sessions next week and than I'm on vacation for a month, I'm afraid my T is going to feel the relief of me being gone and will decide not to work with me when I come back...but I have to trust her when she says she wants to work with me.................FP

Findpeace, Yes I know that feeling of a heavy weight being lifted. Yes its so hard to get there but so worth it, you really can understand at this point how old stuff has such a hold over our well being. Once the feelings are freed we feel so much lighter.

FP, those kinds of sessions are great and I'm so glad for you!

Share this with her. Let her reassure you so you can hold on to that during your vacation break.

((hugs))

This is awesome news!!!

It's so hard to open up and share those frightening things we hold inside and I am proud of you!

You should be proud of you too.

I really get the vacation thing, oh in a big way. I don't know what I'll do in August when T is away. But I like Echoes idea of bringing this up so you will have something to hold onto.

Take gentle care.
