Update on my session Login/Join

Hi all,

I had a great session with my T discussing my Email. I really felt like he answered me as clearly as possible. In some ways, it was little bit like starting therapy again only now I know more about what is going on. I know I'm not being very clear but I'm feeling a little freer and happier just because I felt he heard me and responded.

I kind of avoided the details on how I felt about our relationship. The session was going so well I didn't want delve into it. I imagine I will have to keep having that conversation.

We talked about the fact that while he doesn't avoid any topics he was not pushing me on things that were very upsetting to me. He is willing to talk about anything when I want to.

I'm sure the inevitable emotional backlash will come over the next few days but right now I'm really happy. Thank you all for your comments and encouragement.

It sounds like you really did have a good session and I hope you bask in the warmth of it for days.

Thanks for sharing!

Incognito,
You should be very proud of yourself! I'm sure it was difficult to share your letter with your T. And it sounds like he responded very well. And to be able to experience that should feel really good! And don't worry, you'll get to everything you need to talk about when its the right time.Thanks for letting us know!

AG

incognito,

This sounds like a really awesome session. And

It sounds like 'starting over again', but I remember AG posting something about an onion and layers and going deeper and it sounds like you're really working through that. So I bet you're right when you say you'll get to keep coming back to it! Smiler

I hope the 'backlash' is manageable. Sounds like you did a really awesome thing and had a great session as a result!
