So I am thinking I'll tell my T how much of a problem I've had lately with not feeling connected. I think I've been on my best behavior if you know what I mean. It's hard when you've got someone important to you listening to you, sometimes I feel like that gets in the way of talking about what you need to.
I become preoccupied with 'why the heck does this person care?', 'wait a minute, he doesn't, of course not! why would he?', but maybe he does, and all the accompanying feelings. It's quite exhausting.So then the actual therapy relationship becomes the work, but don't I have other stuff to worry about? Yes, I do, but you always go to where the feelings are first don't you?
Why should the idea of sitting in a room talking to a person openly and honestly be so problematic?
I don't mean to sound simplistic here, but I feel caught up in my own stuff.
