Hmmm, you're right, I'm not crying as much in sessions. Which means when I do start to cry, it's more helpful, because I know it's something significant. And we talked about termination more in my session this week. I didn't come right out and ask him about progress, but I did admit I was dancing around wanting to ask him if he thought I was getting better enough to think about stopping. And then I felt all young and vulnerable and needing validation. I told him I'd just posted this subject, so clearly it's an issue for me. :)

And it was great to hear my T talk about the importance of taking enough time to terminate. Although there's a part of me that just wants to stop without getting into that. But I know there are feelings there about it. Darn it.:)

And you're so right about what others are filtering their impressions through, as far as seeing ups and downs, and having all their own stuff. I have to admit, I didn't really think about it from that perspective. My husband has his own needs and stuff about how he needs me to be. That may or may not match my own needs, but it's how he looks at it. Very good point to bring up, thanks.
