Some interesting insight.
> ...if a T abandons you like this in session, it is actually a kind of compliment.... Perhaps what your pdoc is saying -- very poorly -- is that you really are not far from where you need to be. That you have sources and strengths that perhaps you don't yet fully appreciate in yourself, but others feel them.
>Oh yes, he will be very proud of me for handling this on my own. I can see that coming from a mile away. Kind of makes me want to really misbehave to get his attention, but that would only be hurtful to me. He has said it would have no effect on him.
But even mother birds don't shove their babies out until they actually can fly. If they do, the babies die.
I'd like to say that he mishandled this, but the truth is that this IS the way he handles these types of things w/me. There's a disconnect and I can't seem to breach that gap between us without falling.
