Couch 252: Kitties and Hawks

Ah hell nah! Why??????? If anything, my back is crookeder! I dont know how you guys stand that leash around your ribs! Reminding you with every breath you take: this far and no farther!

I decided to end things with the art therapist and I'm starting with a new therapist. We had our first session last week but it was just going over the paperwork and discussing how she works. We'll start talking about my stuff this Friday. I'm a little nervous. I don't want to start out by talking about trauma, but it's kind of pervasive in my life so I don't know how to get around that.

I meet with P next Monday. He gave the choice to me when our last session would be (up until June when it's over-over). I told him I wasn't ready to sever ties completely yet and I'd like to have one last session in May so I can talk to him about the new therapy relationship. I still miss him and don't logically understand how you can just say goodbye to someone forever when you have a connection like we had. But I guess you can.

Grudgingly, in a word.

I'm sorry you're going through this, NP.

I hope you can find a way in that feels as manageable as it can.

Try to be gentle with yourself in the meantime.

Take care,

Lost

I second all of this, NP.

I've never been on this couch before ,so I'm not sure what to say. (I've never been on my analysts couch either) I feel awkward as hell...dont want to just barge into your couch so maybe I could lie on the floor for a while?
NP it must be hard starting with a new T. Good luck with that.

Oh. About stepping in cat vomit.... I've got something worse. Legos!!! Pain!

Hi calla lily, i used to be hankster maybe when we last interacted?

I think i owe lemoncake an apology for getting all up in arms over brassieres recently. Hopefully i will feel better after my fellow boomers raise the roof tomorrow - those who can still raise their arms over their heads without going into cardiac arrhythmia, that is!
