    Talking To Therapist About Self Harm

    When I went to a Partial Hospital program, they asked me so many questions about my cutting. Some of the questions made no sense at all. What do I cut with...knife,razor, glass,etc? Where do I cut, on my body? How often? Where do I cut, my room,car,bathroom,etc? This one really confused...

    My Doll

    I know this may sound funny, but I have a doll and told my therapist about her. I actually love this doll. I felt funny telling him about how much I love her. I feel a bit crazy that she makes me feel safe and warm, but it's my truth. It was actually quite freeing. He said it's quite common for...

    In Therapy I Learned That

    Really great thread. I am smiling at all of the replies. I have learned that I don't have to say I am OK, if I am really feeling bad. I don't have to pretend to be happy.

    Death It Just Won't Sink In.

    @Toria I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my dad in 2006, I was numb and didn't feel real. I don't think I processed it though. There are alot of unresolved issues and questions that are left, just kind of lingering. I believe you have to allow yourself time, as much time as you need. This...

    How To Talk To A Therapist?

    I too have a really difficult time talking about the deeper matters, however, my therapist is really good in that even after I have said I don't want to talk about it, I find 20 minutes in, I'm talking about it. I would not just be able to talk open and freely, I am working on it. I truly...

    Telling Your Partner About Sexual Abuse...

    Oh, Maggiemay, I understand this all too well! When I told my husband, it was a read between the lines kind of way, but, the truth was out anyway. He really didn't want to discuss it, so the subject was dropped, and we went about things as if I'd never said a thing. This was about 8 years ago...

    I have recently been wondering wether or not we need to give details about the abuse in order to be truly healed. My therapist says he does not push me for details because it triggers me too much. And that there is no evidence in trauma therapy that suggests giving details is the best way to be...
