It went really well. He saw I had the paper in hand so he said he saw it already last week about my sonin the paper. But he didn't see the news interviews so I showed him that. So he saw my DH too because he says stuff too in the interview. I brought him a trumpet flower so he could see what it looked like, but his has finally bloomed at home.
Then he asked about how my week went. I told him really bad, and he said he figured that. Then I told him I needed him to listen me because I had a lot to say and I need to say it. So I got out everything, I struggled a little, but eventually I said it all. He really listened too, didn't even interupt me.
Well we are going to do a EMDR session one day and the next day we will have a talk session. We start in Aug. and I have 4 appointments scehduled this way. I am relived he agreed with me on all I said.
He said I need to be really brave because this is going to be intense. He believes I am in a different place now than 2 years ago. I said it was because I trust him now. He said well that should help.
I talked about the memories that surfaced and he gave me some wonderful insite on even the memories that weren't tramatic but to a kid it was very confusing and I felt shame. I am like wow, so even those minor memories are significate in a way.
I am not sure what we talked about to get to talking aobut this, but he said his governor saw him naked, he was delivered by an ex governor, well I said I was too, delivered by an ex governor. Ottis. T. Bowen. He said well I guess we have both been seen naked by the governor. (different ones) LOL ANd then I said and smacked on the butt too. LOL . It was funny. There are so many weird coincedences between us. Oh yeah, my son got to shake the hand of the ex-governer last week< that how the subject came up.But one thing that kinda caught be off guard was he normally has a very short beard, well he shaved off the sides while on vacation and now just has a mustache and chin coverd in hair. He really looks nice, and much younger too. ;-)
He told me at the end of the session, I really did good today. He normally only tells me that when I tell him "big" or really open up to him.
I do feel good, I am kinda tired, like i need a nap or something. We didn't do emdr today, but we will next time. I am not sure what to think.
