Yes, I saw him at the gym and I called him and left a message to see if I could get in to see him before this Thursday. Well he called me just when I got home from the gym and left a message on my machine that he had an cancellation and if I could get there in a 30 minutes. Well I made it, I hope I didn't smell bad since I didn't have time to shower. LOL
I told him of all the memories that came up from after my burn accident. And I told him about my decision of my marriage. I am glad I got in and didn't have to sit with the memories until Thursday.
We are going to do EMDR again after X-mas with the new memories that that have emerged again. I believe I can do it because I trust him now. We could of done it today, but I wanted to talk about my marriage. He is going out of town for a few days around X-mas so I didn't want to do it before X-mas and not be able to see him if I have a fall out like I did last time when I tried EMDR. So I feel a little better today. I think I will take a nap now. LOL

Well after I told him about my nightmares I was having about my mom abusing me, I said I was tired of being so f*cked up.
First of all he said I wasn't f*cked up.
2nd, he said you can look at it in two ways.He said everyone has had bad stuff that has happend to them, some worse than others, but we are share in that . WE can either look at it like yeah, it was bad, but I survived it, and I am okay.
Or you can say, yeah, I am crazy and f*cked up, but so is everyone else. LOLHe said the people that are really f*ucked up are the ones who didn't see what happend to them was abuse and then went on to abuse their own kids. He said I stopped the cycle of abuse and am living at a high level of functioning. So I guess I am okay or I could say I am f*cked up and so is everyone else. Which should I choose? LOL

I like the option that everyone is f*cked. I think it's true.
Everyone has their demons in their closet. Some are just more debilitating than others? I'm not I've got the right word.
I'm glad you got to talk to your T. It's a huge decision that you made over the weekend.

Thanks Gee, I feel somewhat at peace with my decision. It was a hard one to make but I do feel better to have resolved it in my head. Now I can think about other important issues. :)
