Hi ShortE,

> Is it fair to see yourself as faling because you can't "open up"?

Probably not, but it's hard for me to see it any other way.
>
> If what you need is to go to see her, to talk with a person who actually cares about you, why not do it?

I just didn't think that I'd ever be able to talk about the deep things that I keep trying to bury.
I never thought that what I did tell her was making progress, but that's the negative in me coming out in full force.

> Could it be that you were approaching something in therapy that scared you, so you ran? ((Poet))

Thank you for the hugs. I have a 14 year old inner child who would say that even though she flunked phy-ed she can run like the wind when she needs to.

I do beat myself up. It's very hard to for me to be nice to me. Or to think that I am even remotely loveable. Thanks for seeing something that I don't or that I can't accept.

Part of me says to call my T on Monday, part says let it go a few weeks. I have to just repeat to myself that it's okay to go back and it's okay to not fully open up until I believe it in my head as well as my heart.
