Don't loose hope. Keep up the T Appts. You can start out slow by getting out where their arn't many people. Bring the Sheperd along, I know mine makes me feel safer

This is wrong an so right on so many levels. Da*n the one thing in life that dosn't make sense.

Honestly, I've been doing most of the therapy from home, E-mail. Also exposing myself to most all of my triggers. I've gotten rid of most of them already. Haven't had a trigger in about a month, hell even the men's cologne in the stairwell smelled good at a counselor Appt. yesterday.

I can take all your insight to heart. Also that life is about takeing chances, would you rather take that chance or regret it later. I for one don't like regrets, Though I'm young I am sure you all can relate that we've been through more than most people, and had to grow up early. I've...

I hope you get the answers you seek. Also, yes, you do want attention. Everyone needs to be vallidated, when we were denied it. Also to learn to trust yourself.

Yes, it is all about breathing. I've noticed to that if you notice your vision doubling, if you concentrate, you can shake it off.

I will, And Thank You. Besides, can always call on someone else now.

Thank You, most people have a dark side. But the more you hold it in the worse it comes out. He seems more real than most people you meet. And, I'll get to know him.

Going to switch therapists. And try and pursue this. Yes, I might get hurt, but have to take some chances once in awhile.

Very good insite

I truely felt the same way before finding out. And, it really blows me away that he was willing to express his feelings. I've just never felt this strongly about someone. But proffessional standards are to consider.

Oh yes, deep breathing helps a lot...don't hold your breath.

I will, I usually do too much thinking into situations. And will consider my options.

I had exposed myself to my triggers during therapy. It is rough, and gets worse before it gets better. Just keep telling yourself I made it through this the first time, and at least I don't have to go through as much phisical turmoil. Depending on your somatic pain.

Great the T/client relationship went to a whole other level for me. Found out we have feelings for each other and we have only seen each other three times. Wow is all I have to say, and I can honestly say he is a great guy, Since we've been e-mailing eachother since Oct.

Monster and Abstract: I posted a question awhile back concerning that I had feelings for my T. Also had noticed in his body language, and tone of voice. Well I did get my answer, and the feelings mutual. Sh*t, he is really the sweetest guy and so compassionate. We exchange feelings through...

Theirs a saying in common sense, that you attract who you think you deserve. Sometimes we unconsciously project the image of our abusers onto the people we choose to fall in love with. To correct this we have to know the signs of an abuser, once we get to know them. Also get the hell out of...

With therapy, it seems to get worse for awhile. Just let her know you'll be their for her if she needs you, or someone to talk to. And highly recommend if she lets you know she needs some space, give her that space, so she has time to work on herself.

Since my dads depression when I was 8. He has never been the same, he provides for me;even though I don't need him to now. Also my brother is constantly telling me what I should do. And "blowing up" if he thinks it's wrong. Since I stood up to him, and told him that he may be older, but I'm...

Could also use it on ourselves and not judge ourselves as harshly. IMHO

I agree pencil, on the more intelligent you are the more your able to access. But I think that both T and client should be working together. This way, you can get to know one another so you'll feel more comfortable with the process. Helps to have a good book on how the process works too.

Trust is touchy, I trust someone till they give me a reason not to trust them. Then, we can talk the dissagrement over or give silent treatment till their willing to work things out.

I find that slowly getting yourself out their helps as well. Even if its for just an hour or two at a time. Then slowly increase the amount of time, out of the house.

I think the distraction would make us more aware that most people arn't out to hurt us. They only hurt us if we let them. Of course exposure, exposure, exposure. LOL

Yes, it seems the more information overload at once, seems to overload my mind. Especially if there are too many people talking all at once, Makes me feel crazy and I have to stop them.
