Hi Daisy. I hope you were able to go today. You have the greatest-sounding T., who has apparently been very skillful at bringing out the different *parts*. As I am going through the exact same thing (for the same reasons), I really can empathize with how terrifying and difficult it all is. There are times when I have to force myself to take that last step into my T's office. I am always glad I did, though, afterwards. I was really interested when you said how your younger parts were eager to be there, and to speak, while your adult self wasn't, at times. I have the opposite- my adult self really wants to be there, and speak freely, but my younger selves do not. We have to use dreams, slips of the tongue- just any means we can- to get them more fully into the dialogue.
I hope you'll let us know what happened today.
