Hi gazo,
You are welcome to ask me anything you like, I don't see it as prying! ;-)
It is a long story, but I mainly come to therapy because I was suffering from PTSD that was trigged by a current event that triggered my past childhood abuse. Some of the stuff I repressed as a child, but it did come out first, by EMDR,(uncommon) and 2nd some accidents I had over the past year. My T and I went through every negative thing that happened to me as a child up to now. It took a long time to completely trust him, but eventually I did .
Then I started to have marriage problems, mainly my husband was having an affair and refused to talk about it or do anything about it. Well then therapy focused a lot on my marriage problems with the other stuff in between.
Well I started to fill my life with prior stuff I used to do 20 years ago, since I had a huge void due to my marriage. I am now playing in an orchestra and I am attending college making friends and getting so far a 4.0. My life is happier than it has ever been, even with my marriage problems. It is kinda hard to believe but it is true. I am truely a changed person.
Now I still have stuff to work on (just like everyone else), but it is "manageable" problems that I can take care of myself. So I don't really need therapy anymore, but I do have a special relationship with my T, and I am not sure where it will lead (if anywhere). But mainly termination is my biggest problem because I am unsure after it is over what will come of our relationship. We do have an amazing connection and are both attracted to each other but that might be all there will ever be. Most of my stuff is in the archives if you search under happyflower, up to 1 1/2 years ago and my life saga it there. I am not sure I even want to read the stuff I wrote! LOL Well let me know if there is something you want to know.
