In reply to I did something strange today, posted by mair on March 15, 2007, at 21:47:29
I did some of that myself today -- I knew if I described specific examples of what was upsetting me that he'd point out a pattern of mine -- and he'd tell me he could see why I'd react to the trigger. I think I wanted him to say, "get over yourself" so that I could either argue with him, or agree it was nothing and shove it away. Blah - I hate overthinking stuff!
I'm glad you told her why you were struggling. I think it is great and perhaps the real issue is this, and not the triggers anyway. I also think you are talking about old, old lessons we learn about trusting our instincts. We question all the time how we perceive things because we received lot of messages as a kid that we were wrong in our perceptions.
Anyway -- I hope you have a peaceful weekend and an easier week.
