> *That sort of sounds weird, not to offend you? I don't think I understand what you mean about stories? My T. will occasional tell a story about something in her own life to explain a point she's making, but thats it. Is it stories out of books? or the news? or about himself?

what happened was asked to review a case and told them that the guy would probably commit suicde if they didn't give him treatment. they ignored his advice, and the guy did.
my T was trying to make a point that you can't control ppl, and that he believes ppl do the best they can given the resources they have, and he tries not to get angry about it, hard as it is.
That made me think of a guy i knew in college who tried, but failed, which made him think of a T he knew who tried and failed.

> *Yeah. Those past feelings don't seem to go away. My T. I think is more cbt oriented. I think she thinks that all that old sh*t will just go away once you've got enough 'skills' or something. But they don't. They just keep eating away at you. At me anyways.

seems my T must feel the same way. The thoughts haunt me, they don't go away. They haven't changed, but i've only been seeing him maybe 11 or 12 weeks now.
muffled, have you told your T that you still have all the old stuff eating away at you? If so, what does she say?

> *I'm like that. I always write my T. a note afterwards when I've chilled some. I think you should definately tell your T. how you feel about it. Maybe he has some special T. strategy he's working on or something!? I goto wonder sometimes. Those T's, do they REALLY tell you what they are thinking, REALLY?

i don't think it was a strategy, i don't know what he was thinking, maybe didn't realize how much those things bother me. i don't know.

thanks (((muffled)))!
