I'm curious if you called him on being hurtful. I think I might have said, "is that an attempt to cut me down or shut me down? It seems you are having some pretty strong feelings about this..."
We can do therapy speak too! :)
I had a tantrum on the phone with my therapist yesterday. I miss him - work is in the way so much right now and I've missed at least a session a week if not the whole week. And we have been working way deep - back about 6 years old when things really started to get out of hand. This is really hard because I can't keep hold of my words nor write about this - I think the confusion and limited vocabulary of a six year old is blocking me. So I told my therapist on the phone: "I don't want to figure this out; I don't want to be introspective or thoughtful; I don't even want to be be polite! I just want to know I'll be OK and you can help and you aren't going to leave because it is all too hard." (stomp, stomp)
He stopped asking questions and went into support mode, and said yes I'll be fine and he is right there and we are connected. And then he left a voice mail later saying it all again.
So I think we can sometimes not be pc, as you said, and it will still be OK.
