You know, I've never given my T a gift. I think I'm afraid to show him I care. I've only talked about it a couple of times in two years.
That darned fear of rejection thing. Or that he'll think I'm not doing as well as I think I am. Which I know is totally irrational. What's wrong with caring about someone? Especially someone who holds such an important role in my life?
sigh
It's reminding me about my post on social about "letting my hair down" when I'm home alone. I don't have that feeling in therapy, either, although I suppose it's closer than when my husband is home. But those darned "shoulds" are at play here..."Shouldn't I" feel that way in therapy?
Good thread. Lots of thoughts about it.
