Mystic, trusting on the cognitive level was something I've never thought of before....I know relationships involve different aspects-but what does trusting on the cognitive level mean? It feels good to trust in someone who cares about you. And one of the things I love about him is his love for learning.
well I didn't tell him yet I read several psychodynamic manuals...He had started to tell me about something a researcher wrote about, and I said oh I read that..that's how the conversation started....and I think I was afraid he was starting to let me intelletualize everything, which is what I did with my prior therapists..the whole time..and don't want to go back there. But I guess I can enjoy different aspects of the relationship-it doesn't have to be either or.
I still can't remember what he said about being critical, but I'll ask him next session-you know how things emerge when you process sessions? I just have so much to work through each session-stuff pops in my head everyday and I really wish I could go more than once a week. I've been saving this stuff up my whole life...and need to get it out...and it takes so long, so long...thanks :)
