I knew he'd take you back.
Tomorrow (whoops...today now!) will be weird and hard, no doubt.But you are a direct person, and I know you can do this. This could turn out for the better.
But I'd caution you (not that I've *quit* therapy before, but...) it could take more than one session to feel better. I think I'm the type that really builds up stuff in my mind before certain sessions, and then I have a bigger crash 'cause it all didn't get said, or go the way I fanatasized it should/would...are you maybe like that, too?
So maybe, way in the back of your mind, tell yourself it's okay if you get some understanding, reconnection and repair today, but not *all* I'm learning slowly this stuff takes as long as it takes. I hate it, but I swear it's true.
It'a VERY hard lesson for impatient-me!
I also have therapy today. I didn't quit, but in some ways I feel BOTH my T. and I have quit (a little ) on each other by not working hard and by talking around stuff. And he's taking too many notes, and forgetting to help me look at him more, like I've asked twice. And he seems a litle distracted. Nice, but not right there with me. I need him there *with* me!
So, we'll both have some stories to tell later, right? Hope they are good ones! I will pray for both of us and both our T's, if that's okay with with you. Be strong!
