Daisy, some thoughts about your list which resonate with me.>
> Positive:
> Learning to lean on/reach out to other peopleThis could be interpreted as being dependent/needy as well. Kind of depends on how you look at it. I feel like it's good, too. But when I discovered my dependence the first time, I said "Holy transference, batman!" Was caught off guard.
> my Therapist
> Babble! :)I agre with these for me as well.
>
> Negatives:
> Regression, at timesI don't think this is a negative. I have rather enjoyed regressing. Kind of fun to wear pigtails, enjoy the sounds of crunching fall leaves under my feet (okay, have been regressing for awhile), etc. But now I feel like I am re-integrating my inner child I got in tough with through regression.
> Fragile, "I'm breakable" feelings
Oh, yeah. Feel like this at times.
> time spent cryingAlways wondering if I am ever going to get to a place where I don't cry all the time in session.
> Can't focus on work as much
Definitely need to be careful about when I schedule my session. It works best for me to make it my last appt. of the day so I don't have to face anyone if I am feeling raw.
> Constantly having to push myself to stay with it
Oh isn't it easier at times to just repress? :-(
I think you made a good list. Definitely fodder for another session.Thanks for sharing your assignments. Really makes you think. My T never gives me homework.
