OK. I have appt tomorrow. I am going to attempt to express an emotion (other than anxiety!!!) to my T. Directly, not just in writings. I am going to tell her, to her face, that she pissed me off by bringing up the topic of inside me(the Kid)and asking her(Kid) if she wanted to say anything, just said this out of the BLUE?!?! (I dissociate, so I MIGHT have missed something, and be so way wrong).
I had previously sorta hinted alot about inside kid but previously she had COMPLETELY ignored it. Then bam she acts like its just the norm or something.
I don't know why I am so bothered.
I proly will wooss out like usual. But I'll get it across in my writings somehow. maybe. sh*t anyways.
Any clever thots for me out there you guys?

GOOD LUCK!!!! No wonder you are stressing, sometimes our T's can do that to us. Just be ho nest and direct if you can, and I am sure you two will deal with this well. I think sometimes T's are trained to f*ck with our heads, you know! :)
Let us know how it all works out!

MUFFLED!!! You can do it! Try writing it on your hand (the inside that is) and then you'll know it's there, and if you want, you could read it.
You'll be great I know it!

Hey Muffled,
I like the idea of writing on your hand.
And I know you can do this. It's good to shake things up a bit sometimes.

Yeah, good idea, but what to write?
'get mad at T' or
'give 'er sh*t' or
'SPEAK' or

er...
did she just ask whether your little one wanted to talk?
because maybe... she just wanted to let her know that she is important too (just like how you are important).
i mean... the little one didn't talk to her - did she?
and your therapist took that okay?
Sounds like it would be good to talk to her about how you felt when she asked that, though.
and about some of the reasons why you might have felt that way
(you could have a think about those together)
i hope your session goes well.

**I think so, I was kind of blanking out
>

***That may be
>
> i mean... the little one didn't talk to her - did she?
***No, she was too surprized
>
> and your therapist took that okay?
***Yeah, I was smiling cuz the kid really liked that she was recognized somehow, so she asked why I was smiling. She asked what the kid was like. I was all wigged out. Don't think I said too much.

> Sounds like it would be good to talk to her about how you felt when she asked that, though.
***Yeah proly :(
>
> and about some of the reasons why you might have felt that way
***Yeah. Gotta think on that. I been kinda taking a rest. Thinks the kids been crying though. I'm trying not to notice.
>
> (you could have a think about those together)
***Yeah, me'n'the kid. We gonna have to talk I guess. I feel really kinda bad bout ignoring her I guess.
>
> i hope your session goes well.***My T is kinda smarter that I realize, she'll kinda dump something on me, but then the next week she usu. has some teaching type stuff on hand in case I don't talk. She kinda left and opening or two, but I didn't take the bait. So it was good appt. Just kinda chilled and reconnected and she wasn't evil or nothing.
I felt good enough that I left some of my more innocuous writings with her when I left. I have a terrible time parting with my writings. I can fax them, but actually physically handing them over is much more difficult.
Thanks,
Muffled(and co. ,I suppose)
