Therapy lately has been hard. I cried so much last session because we started talking about grad school and so do not want to leave my T and graduate. At this point I might even be staying at the grad school at my college, so it's by far not a sure thing. But I cried so much. My T tried challenging a few things and I got upset and thought he wanted me to leave. He said, "What makes you think I would want that?" We talked about how whenever he challenges me I seem to see it as rejection, and how that's coming from the little girl part. I called him and he left me a message today saying that I don't really have to think about it right now, I'm still a long way off from leaving, and he's right. He leaves really good messages sometimes.
And I brought my stuffed animal to a session. It was nice to have it to hug when I was crying, and my T thanked me for 'introducing' them.
Therapy is so hard sometimes...
