The hardest thing I do every session is walk through the door in to the room. It is hard to be vulnerable, and especially to try a new T. Ts will usually stay in one spot, safely and securely until you land nearby. How you feel is totally okay and you'll go when you can! Good luck..

joec,

Starting over with a new T is very difficult. I understand what you are experiencing. It's hard to start over because of what happened in the past. My oldT wasn't good for me, and I can recognize those things but there are still moments that I want to run back. There are moments when I am with my wonderful T now and am fearful she'll respond in the same way. It takes time to build the trust, but I just wanted you to know that all of those feelings you are feeling are very very normal(common) among those of us who have started over again. Go easy on yourself. You'll get there.

Catalyst-what you said about walking through the door--SO true. I have a long walk to the end of the hallway where T's office is...(from the waiting room) and it's the LONGEST hardest walk of my life. Once I get inside, I fight to let that guard down.

Try try and try again. Unable to commit to the time required yada yada yada. Nice lady otherwise. Seems like she has been a good therapist for those in the past. It is diffrent feeling how terrible it feels talking about my experiences.
