Hi ShortE,

It's okay to try and therapize me.

I hate the word safe because hearing it doesn't make me feel it. *I want you to be safe, you need to stay safe, this is a safe place* are all wonderful statements, but they don't evoke my feeling safe.

It's like when my therapist and/or pdoc think I should go inpatient to stay safe. It would likely keep me safe from physical harm, but not the emotional damage I do to myself.

I guess I hate the word safe, because I don't feel safe anywhere. My T has asked if she can do anything to help me feel safer. Pdoc just asked the same thing when I told him I quit therapy, but went back. I have no answer.
