Awww B2, hope you feeling a bit better.
Ya, phoning.....thats where the code word is good, cuz if you say it, T KNOWS to call, despite what you might say....
It sorta circumnavigates around those that would try and mess you up.
Anyhow, I don't always remember calls either. Quite common with me, cuz phoning is SUCH a big deal for me.
There's been times when T has brought up a call in session and I don't remember doing it...
Or times where I have asked what did I say in a call (it was so hard to ask, and I kinda did ask in a roundabout way), cuz I had a feeling it might not have been nice...
But its OK B2, like I say, its proly stress and it WILL ease up and get easier.
How long have you been breastfeeding, I'm sorry, but I can't remember. But I hear that 6 mo gives them all they really need as far as benefits of breastmilk, and if you going to be 'digging in' in therapy, you might want to talk about the possibility of weaning onto formula so as to be able to get some releif from meds as needed.
I guess you'll just have to weigh the pros and cons re:cost of formula, cost of meds, abilty for you to cope, etc. I spose you could TRY and not do much digging in T and keep it just more maintenance and support at this time, burt sometimes you just can't wait....
So I dunno B2, sounds like you got lots to discuss w/T.
I just want you to try and not get too overwhelmed with the emotions of your inside kids. Cuz their emotions, just like yours do ease off. They may come back, but then they ease up again. These inside kids are not magical, or super powered, they just regular kids, with powerful feeling kids emotions, but still, its emotions, and emotions will ease with time.
This all sounds so trite I know, cuz at the time it feels so powerful, but its truth, so try to hold onto it if you can.
