I Feel Like I Could Remain Silence All My Life

[Lady of Longbourn]

It was my T who said that actually. He was the first one who looked at me and said "I bet people treated you like you were really innocent in school." Because of the way I looked. People forgot I had feelings...they saw what they wanted to see. And my T worded that perfectly. I guess I started doing what people thought I should do, then what I wanted to.

Putting on a mask I guess. I CAN'T do that with my T, it would screw up everything.

They also KNOW us, too, don't they? Mine looks at me and just sort of proceeds to read my mind, pretty much. If I did not trust him beyond implictly, it would be very, very unnerving. I just find it comforting, from him.

Having said that, I've still 'heard' you say things of immense sweetness here. :) Having said THAT, it must be nice to be able to reveal the anger and UN-sweet parts, since integrating all these elements has got to be where all this healing path is heading. It just feels to me like the T's allow us this sort of luxury of finally being who we are. That was just a completely new concept for me, that's all.
