of those who can talk about the T-client relationship with their T's. I can't talk about it. I'd rather talk about ANYTHING else. The most shameful & traumatic moments in my life. But the relationship? that's truly truly terrifying.
Seriously, I've been in therapy for a year and a half, and I've only mentioned the T-me relationship a handful of times, very tentatively, and in passing.
How can I DEAL with it, if I can't even talk about it with my T? I make up all these reasons why I *shouldn't* talk about it. I make up all of these excuses. next week, next week, etc.
Maybe part of it is that I've only seen him 4 times in 5 weeks, which is probably enough to make the t-me relationship a little more open to speculation and a little less tethered to reality.
Allows lots of room for distressed LlurpsieMind to project ALL her insecurities.A mere handful of men get to know my emotional vulnerabilities. To admit that T is one of these men is utterly terrifying. completely mortifying. Can I quit now?
