> The flip side is that when my therapist was getting new furniture, about a year into my therapy, he warned me that I might feel upset, unsettled, or a bunch of other things. I was so insulted that he thought a "little" thing like the furniture change would upset me. I even posted about it!!
**** I kind of remember that. I think I would feel cared about myself, just because I know I would be thrown by it.

> umm...he was right. It took awhile but I'm used to it now.**** That's good. Gives me hope I'll get used to it too. The problem is it looks an awful lot like this chair we have at home, and so it keeps turning into that chair in my head.

> I'm guessing with his recent surgery/injury (didn't he hurt his back?) that he needed something different.
>**** I don't think that's it actually. At the beginning of the session he said that they were having an estate sale near his house and the second day everything was half off. So he got the chair for $30. And he said he's always wanted a leather chair for his office. I remember him saying something about that a long time ago, I think, too.
> I'm glad you were able to talk to him about your feelings. Another sign of growing trust. Good for you.
**** I wish it felt better than it does. But thank you.
