Dinah,
You sound unusually negative about yourself in this post. Is there a reason for that, for those views of yourself, for today?
I know what you mean by some sense of dissatisfaction with our T's expressions of supportiveness, encouragement, etc. Even though we know our T's are well intentioned, these things somehow just...don't...hit...the spot. Do they? So we exhort them to turn up the amplitude, and if they care they will try to, but it still falls short. I suspect that the take home is that no one else can make us feel something about ourselves that we are unable to feel ourselves.
You are just Dinah. And that is a very good thing to be, from what I see.
Lucie
