Disconnecting in therapy
Hi,
I hope you're all okay as can be.
I confided in my therapist about the past last week; it was very difficult but I did it, even though I could only write a letter.
I found today's session very difficult.
I seemed to disconnect and "shut off" - I spent the whole session staring at the floor and the bin and crying. She explained that's it's normal to put up a wall and she's there to help me try and take it down, brick by brick.
I feel quite disappointed in myself but she said therapy is never straight forward and she thinks I did very well to come today and do what I did last week.
I think I may try and write down a few things for next session as I'm finding it so hard to talk about how I feel. Do you think that could help?
I'm determined to try harder next week - I've been told I often disconnect when things are hard and often need a push.
