Thank you to the folks who offered an understanding ear, some helpful advice and abit of motivational whip crackin' ((octo))
I didn't call my T nasty names today. We actually had a really good but rather intense session today and i cried. And I think he got abit upset too which was nice in that he knew i was hurting and empathized. We talked about really sensitive issues and he went places that I didnt know would get me so upset.
On a lighter note...wanna hear a funny slip up that he made today in our session and apologised immensely for. We we talking about thought patterns of depressed people and he was telling me some kind of statistic percentage and he meant to say "people without depression" or as he put it "non-depressed people" and instead said "normal people". LOL I accept that hes human and he said that was the dumbest thing he had said all day. I didn't get offended i just made jokes about it :P it was late in the day, i was feeling abit frazzled myself.
I'd like to finish this post off with a question whilst ive got the courage to post in the first place (go me!).
Has anyone ever felt their T is asking questions for their own curiosity and not for your benefit? As though they're saying "I want to help you with this by getting to the bottom of these feelings" but really they're just using you as another casestudy per se. Like what you are/have experienced is enthralling and they want to delicately ask questions but not over step the boundries.
Okay. I gotta conclude this Q :PThanks again to everyone in babble open chat for your love and support. I strongly reccomend that place to anyone who hasnt been there as its a beautiful and comforting place to be.
And the people are loads of fun *hugs*Thank god for the babbles!
