Holy crap. I’m glad I went today. My head is spinning a bit, but in a good, unexpected way, I guess. We addressed the elephant in the room. We talked about my guilt about coming to therapy and having needs, How it took me a year to make my first therapy appointment because I feel guilty about having needs. How I feel angry about having needs. I also talked about comparing myself to others who have it much worse (I work with pediatric cancer patients, so it’s pretty easy to do on a daily basis). I didn’t think he’d have a good comeback for that one, but he did. It was good. What are the chances I’ll be able to hold onto this? Knowing me, I’ll need to relive this experience many more times.
