You're so nice to ask!
I'm pretty stable right now. Weird, 'cause I am going out of town for five days, meaning there will be 12 days between sessions. Yuk. Don't like that..BUT my T. loves email, and is really good at answering emails. So...it helps to know that.
I want to post more specifics about sessions, but I've have SEVERE therapy amnesia...you know where you just forget what the heck you talked about almost within hours (maybe even minutes!) of leaving? Do you ever get that? I seem to all the time now. I HATE it. What I have to do is go into my car and write down all the important stuff the second I leave the session. But I haven't been doing it.
Anyway..I think I've been frustrated for a month or so because everything comes back to trust and the therapy relationship. In the meantime, current life issues, and even some more stuff I think he needs to know about my past, haven't been touched since back in about April! I KNOW how important the things are between he and I (him and me? arghh--can't do grammer any more..) but it seems to take up too much time. Like I said once in a post - I think I need 6 hour sessions. Maybe an all day-er with breaks! lol - can you imagine that? Bet I could take it, but my T...don't know...might freak him out...
Mostly right now, I'm, trying to stay really positive, Babble a lot, and laugh and be silly on Social, etc., -a lot. This really helps me with NOT ruminating or hating myself...hard to do those when you're ROTFLYAO!!!!

>>>>>I KNOW how important the things are between he and I (him and me? arghh--can't do grammer any more..) but it seems to take up too much time.
<<<<<<I think this too. Whenever I say that I'm avoiding the real work of therapy, my therapist's reponse is "this IS the work!" Usually this comes up for me when the feelings are too intense or I feel like he is getting to close or I realize just how needy I've been.
I'm in that space now. I'm trying to imagine what on earth I'll talk about tomorrow because I want to go in and say, "I'm fine" and leave it at that. Bet you a dollar to donuts I can't get away with it though. *sigh*

I wish my T would allow emails but then again maybe it is a good idea that he doesn't because I would get upset if he took too long to respond. lol This month I have therapy every 2 weeks and it hard because I am used to every week. But I guess our T's have to have time off to get away from us crazies.! lol> - I think I need 6 hour sessions. Maybe an all day-er with breaks! lol - can you imagine that?

>I think I would like to have a slumber party with my T! lol I would love to have a all day session, breakfat, lunch, dinner, and then late night snack, oh then a late breakfast! lol Just kidding!
