> She asked me if it would be easier for me to talk if I wrote stuff down or emailed her stuff to read. I said no, but she told me to consider doing it anyway. which led to us joking about using sign language or smoke signals :P.Hi Peddidle,
Since she offered to let you email her, write down those one-sided conversations you have with her in your head and email them to her real fast before you can change your mind. At your next therapy session, you can talk about what you wrote. Or maybe you won't be able to...but at least she will be more aware of what is troubling you. The writing could help serve as a bridge you could use to learn to talk about subjects you are too afraid to bring up.
Just try it once and see what happens. You don't have to continue if you don't like the result.
