Hi Dinah,
Yes, to give my therapist his due, I think he was trying to make it nonthreatening. But he didn't explain himself. Also, at one point last session, after a period of silence, where I was trying to quiet the voices, he said to me, "Family meeting?" I nodded and then he said "Just by looking at you, you can think nothing or you can think everything."
What the h*** does that mean? You can think that I'm either an idiot or a raving lunatic. But I think maybe I am oversensitive to people talking about my looks.
The paper tearing really did hurt me though. That I really would like to ask about. I mean it happened quite a while ago, but I think I would like to bring it up as a reason why it's not a good idea just to let these voices speak because that incident proves that he really doesn't react well to negative feedback and they have plenty of that to give to him.
Right now, I feel so detached from my T that at least I'm not suffering the anxiety of going so much anymore. And in some ways that's where Babble helps me most because I see the good working relationships most of you have with your Ts and it helps me to realize that mine just might not be working for me.
