last session with T tomorrow - will find out what is going to happen after that as well - whether I am being referred on or if my funding has finished.

I am also going to ask about what is going to happen to my file - I trust T but I dont want others seeingmy file - if I have a choice that is.

Also am going to ask T what she meant by I have to be careful who I trust ......

I am going to try and be an adult and sort out as much as I can - don' t know if I can do this.... am afraid... thats the child isnt it....

Keep your fingers crossed for me - I am sure everything will be fine

good luck, sweetie . is your appt in the morning or afternoon? i will send calming vibes your way.

also - even if funding is over, you know we can still get freebie sessions under medicare, so that shouldn't be a reason to stop seeing someone/not move on to someone new.
Thanks for this!

I hope this session ends things on a positive note for you, and that you are able to continue sessions with someone else without much interruption.

I am thinking of you! Write down everything you need to tell her and ask her so you know you said/asked all the things that you need to.

Please let us know how it goes, okay?

Thanks for this!

Im not really sure.. we didnt get to do the EMDR I have wanted to do for the last month or so..... she said for the SI i just need to use the techniques that work not to do it - hmm I would be doing that if I could - I think - dunno - confused - I think she thinks im fixed... maybe I am... maybe I just dont know it lol

i can see another T at her practice - my funding is still good..... but now I feel like I would be wasting their time ......

shes not leaving as soon as we thought so I have managed to get another appt to get the EMDR done - but if Im fixed i shouldnt need it anyway....

I just feel really sad.... shouldnt though - Im fixed Lol

this is all good news, dear Phoenix. You don't have to end so suddenly and just knowing that will give you strength and some perspective. You don't have to be in such a reactive mode.

please go easy on yourself and don't decide to just quit if you feel like you are under pressure

PS I hope you can get away from judging whether "fixed" or not... I am beginning to realize that it is an invalid term, we just need different things at different times. T tells me she has her own T that she has been seeing on and off for decades, and still sees whenever something comes up and she needs reinforcements. There is nothing at all out of the ordinary about it.
Thanks for this!

yep good news

I was/am feeling very insecure and may have taken some of her comments the wrong way.... or maybe I didnt and ..... im just making it all about me - attention seeking..... (my interpretation of somthing she said ) fixed but wanting more attention... dunno... have to think on it ....

Hi Sweetheart, its understandable you felt/feel insecure, but your being too hard on yourself, i think "sittingatwateredge" is right, what does fixed even mean?

Its so easy to interpret something someone said in a totally different way than they meant or intended, i do it all the time, & normally takes me day's to realise its often my mind just running riot...

you have a chance to carry on & see someone else, that can only bring good things, its certainly not wasting anyones time, please dont be hard on yourself, you seem to have come far, there's nothing wrong with making it about you, it's you that's important .

i hope things become clearer for you
Thanks for this!

I'm glad you have another appointment

Maybe you got what she said wrong - I do that a lot.
I was talking about attention seeking today with my psychologist - I've wrote an apology to her before for wasting her time. I know now she doesn't think that - the nurse does though.

I think it would be the same for you, you might be thinking that, doesn't mean it's right or that she thinks that - I'm sure she doesn't think you are at all.

You're being to hard on yourself
It just takes time and it's different for everyone

Take Care

I think your sig says it all...it isn't how many times you fall down, but how many times you pick yourself back up!

The idea of being 'fixed' is such a weird one, because that would mean that you were 'broken'. Whatever happened in your life, you are perfect just the way you are. Yes, we all have issues to work on, but then again life would be awfully dull without a few challenges now and again.

Great work, phoenix7!

Thanks for this!
