Summertime, I think it is completely reasonable to be upset by that. You didn't give consent for that in any way - verbally or nonverbally.

I learned the hard way (several times) that if I get too hyper-focused on grading or work to the exclusion of taking care of myself, eventually I crash. HARD. Balance is important for mental health.

Yeah, that’s a good way of putting it into perspective... I would never do that unless he explicitly asked for it. I’m not sure, I mean he seemed genuinely apologetic, but I also haven’t brought it up since. I know I need to, I’m just nervous because I’m already feeling REALLY off because of this. I’m sure it’s not solely because of what happened with my husband and there are other factors involved too (like a trauma anniversary coming up this week), but I’ve been so anxious, depressed,

IMO what your husband did was not okay at all. I'd feel really, really hurt and angry if my SO did that to me. An apology would not be enough.

As soon as I step foot in T's office I act like a complete idiot. I can hold a functional conversation with friends and people in day to day life, hold eye contact etc, act adult and normal, even friendly if I'm in the right place, but as soon as I see T I go to pieces. I can't look at her, can't voice my thoughts and feelings without intense inner scrutiny, just feel reduced to a total mess. She brings out such intense feeling in me. I just wish she could see me how I am at my best as I'm scared she thinks I'm just a stupid idiot.

She always reassured me she had no doubt that I was a functional member of society but that in her office I didn’t need to be that version and she was okay with that. |

The very short term therapist I had before her didn’t think his clients exist outside therapy. But I also walked in one day a bottle of vodka rolled out from under his desk.

Couch mini-poll: In XO, which is the hug and which is the kiss? I always thought the X was the hug (crossed arms like you hug someone with) and the O was the kiss (the shape the lips make), but I just heard the other way around. I can see how the O can be seen as a hug but not the X as a kiss. |

Maybe X marks the spot where you're landing your kiss?

I’m in the market for a life coach to help me get over some obstacles and I’m finding a lot of them are therapist that offer life coaching. The one that was simply just a life coach was a pastor-I’m not interested in that sort of coaching.

If X is the kiss and O is the hug, though, why is it "hugs and kisses" not "kisses and hugs"? Shouldn't the symbols be in the order of the corresponding descriptive phrase? Or why isn't it OX?
