Daisy,
Your right I have thought of much of that and know I do the avoidence game at the beginning of each session. However, I think of how much I'm paying and try not to waste time.
My T is suppose to be the expert with PTSD in our area. I do think he is great at knowing the process just not good at picking up on me. I know I'm different since I have had many trauma's and been very successful at dealing with them...you know the strong one like you :). I think I trump him at times and that's ok if I really feel like he is there for me. I can't tell if this is ALL me or there is some valid reasoning here.
I did read one of your posts today that was such a good reminder for me. "Our feelings are our feelings...and logic doesn't change them" I shouldn't have put that in quotes as its not exact but it really helped me. I have set aside my feelings to get through so much that now that they are present I still try to use the logic and get VERY mad at myself when my head knows it and my heart does what it wants. Well, I'm getting off my soapbox for now. Let me know if you have any other thoughts. Thanks!
Marie
