hey T, I start out the session...
I want to make a deal with you. I won't "act out": cut myself or overdose. I will be real and authentic.
You can help me process trauma stuff.
fast forward to end of session- I have made it through a recounting of my early traumatic memories and coping mechanisms from infancy. I have talked about my family history and the crappy card of genes I was dealt.
I have revealed more in 45 minutes than in 3 months.
T started hypothesizing at the end of the session. We went over. I could tell his brain was trying to absorb all the new information.
Thank you T for listening well and for thinking hard and not making me feel like an infantile reject.
Now I'm exhausted.

Now I feel more faith in our relationship, so I can actually talk about it-
"hey T, do we have a good working relationship?"
"hey T, what is my treatment plan and how am I doing?"
"hey T, how did you react when I told you about XXXXX"
"hey T, do you think I can make it in the real world despite XXXXX?"
"hey T, do you care about me?"
etc
