I want to cut. I really really do. I would except I told my T that I could deal with the emotions that came up in session, where we left them. But really I can't. I don't even really know what they are. They are too mixed up and angry and painful. I don't want her to see it as acting out. At the same time I don't know why I care what she thinks at this point, given that she wont tell me what she thinks. How long would I have to wait until she wouldn't think it was a direct reaction to the session? I wish they would just go away. I knew I shouldn't have brought it up right before break. But I really thought one session would be enough. Now I feel all alone.

Do u write in a journal? I'm seeing a therapist for anxiety/PMDD- and when I notice I start to feel anxious, depressed, etc-I've tried to start writing in my journal when I can- it helps me sort out my thoughts...sometimes I just keep writing, writing, and I vent about whatever is making me anxious....I spill all my feelings out on the pages. It helps me relieve some of the thoughts spinning in my head.

I want to cut all the bad feelings out of my body. I feel so awful. I should probably write more about all this in my journal, but I don't know if I want to know what I am thinking/feeling.

I want just be able to cut and not care about how my T would view it. Not care if she thought it was acting out or in reaction to our last session. I wish I didn't care.

I don't want to know sometimes because then all the intense feelings come up and I feel worse. Sometimes they are scary. And sometimes it feels like they wont ever go away.

This is understandable but this is what you need to go through to get better - when you are ready.......
