Boy I've written you a lot of stuff lately.. hope you got the babblemail.
I think its completely the undivided attention that I'm thriving on with my T. I'm partially afraid that that's the only thing keeping me "sick".. the need to have her attention in that way.
I guess my frustration with her is really not that she's pushing me emotionally, but that she's not most of the time. I think she is personally more comfortable with insight and intellect than emotions, as am I.. so we stay in that land most of the time. However, the inner child thing is obviously emotional, and you're probably right, she is probably just trying to get me to open up the emotions.. but it still feels so technical to me for some reason. I often think that if she'd just say "wow, you're really hurting arent you" I'd just fall apart right there on the spot. I guess this is a lesson in asking for what I need. Dont you hate these "therapy lessons" sometimes?
