Mrs C. so glad to hear from you..was worried...I started my therapy yesterday and it was good just like you last week..She is an older woman and is very interested in helping me...I dont know if I meantioned I know someone else on the posts mentioned this..but I was abused from an uncle when I was very young and when you start therapy it is like therapists just fixate on those things I feel that I have moved on..The one thing I wanted to share because I know that somone else had mentioned abuse with her father and just not sure who...But there is a therapy called EMDR and it is rapid eye movement therapy and it is supposed to be very good at this kind of thing I just wanted to share that because this woman that I saw yesterday also mentioned it so I think they are getting some really good results..I didnt know who to pass that to...I'm going to pass on that for now but maybe in the future...I'm not going to confront the abuser as he already knows...I feel that anyone that gets therapy needs to feel comfortable and secure with a therapist and tell them what they need and want out of the sessions and that is the exact question that the therapist asked me yesterday ...the first time in years and years of therapy...So that comes with age being assertive about your needs...I'm glad that you found someone that is good we all need some help sometimes and I pray that it works out for you...Take care of yourself and talk to you soon...Mystic
