My T wrote this for me in my last session ('cause I faze out and forget most of the session):
"When I feel like doing a runner, this is an expected feeling of wanting to avoid feelings and issues I'm not comfortable with. But I don't have to give into these feelings. I can face up to them. Not run. And find out the beliefs that drive them are wrong."
I love it when he writes stuff out for me :)
> I felt a bit like 'what the hell is wrong with me - nothing even happened to me - loads of people had it much worse than me' and I shared that with one t.
> She said 'but you had nobody to talk to'.
> And I just cried.I'm not sure what your childhood was like alex, but even if you were never beaten, molested, etc, emotional neglect/abuse is still very damaging. In fact it is the emotional abuse aspect of all the other types of abuse that is the most damaging.
> But I reckon the urge to run means that it is really important that you don't.
> Sigh.
> Why is life like that so often?????A friend of mine once said that it is the paradox's in life that make it so interesting.
