Wow, thats great!

I have always had a problem with expressing anger appropriately. I would bury it way deep because I thought people would run a mile or attack me if I ever expressed it.

But I wrote my T an honest, angry email (most of the anger was way escalated becuase of transference) and he was civil in his response!

He said that it wasn't in his job description to react to my emotional states, but it was in his job description to attempt to help me understand them.

I cry over that. That is so amazing. It is things like that that make therapy immesurably helpful and worthwhile and worth all the money in the world to me.
