In reply to so now T knows... and I get another label, posted by sunnydays on June 6, 2008, at 11:31:48
Wow. Thanks everyone. I do realize on some level that it's just a label. But there's still that young part of me that came home from T, flopped on the bed and cried because, "I don't want anything more to be wrong with me."
Telling has made me much much much more aware of all the little rituals and things I do. But I'm not really trying to stop them. I figure that maybe will have to come later and there's no point stressing myself out about it now.
I also told him at the end that I was starting to realize that the trauma stuff wasn't going to just go away and never have happened and that I was going to have to find a way somehow to deal with it and integrate it into a part of who I am. Because I really want to get to a point where I can talk about it without it bothering me and be able to bring it up when it's relevant and stuff. My T thought it was really profound, which I guess maybe it is, but I hadn't thought of it that way.
My T is really nice. :)
