Your work is encouraging to me. I believe my second year will be different as well. I think the first year was the battle to trust, to work out our relationship, to decide if it was worth all the pain. It took me awhile to acknowledge the enormity of it all. It took me even longer to admit I had differing and conflicting ego states. So, it seems now we focus more on the healing and the integrating and less on what-I-don't-like-about-your-office and all the other tactics I used to avoid the hard work.
Thank you for sharing your experiences. They have made me feel less alone.
BTW, my T knows Allan Schore!
