Feel free to tell me how TOTALLY wrong I am but I get the feeling that you may be guarded with T because you feel like you have to be entertaining to be worthwhile. Like if you're serious/vulnerable it would be too painful or you wouldn't be taken seriously anyway. I don't know. I sincerely apologize if I'm being a busybody. My intentions are good.

It is not easy for me to be vulnerable. It is not easy for me to walk into therapy and cry and spill my guts. Make just take baby steps, Brian. Maybe you could just spill a little at a time and gain reassurance from your T that it is OK to be vulnerable. You seem to have a strong desire to heal and persevere with therapy. I think that desire is a key piece of the puzzle. Keep trying. Ask your T for help.
