I think I mentioned CBT in connection with saying I didn't think I really started therapy until Year 5, which was when I finally stopped testing him and started trusting him. I'm not sure how we got there, but I think it was something along the lines of my being open to change but at my own very slow pace, which was ok with him.

And maybe something about thanking him for telling me that even if I got *all* better (he asked with a laugh what is *all* better anyway) I wouldn't have to stop seeing him. That reassurance is what helps me move along without being afraid that changing means losing him. Because if I thought that, I'd likely be unwilling to change at all.

My OCD is acting up a bit, ok more than a bit, and no doubt that had something to do with my worrying that I had insulted him. (I'm rarely up before six unless my OCD is nagging me.)
