My T asked me how I get out of the trance when I’m triggered. The back story is that I’ve had an increase of flashbacks or relationship conflicts leading to some very painful negative beliefs about myself in the last few months. My T has helped me very sparingly between sessions and removed twice a week sessions unless I “really need it.” I think she is trying to get me to be more proactive in solving the puzzle or recognizing (on my own) that my spiral of thoughts is due to a negative belief that isn’t necessarily true. She said an odd thing. I had told her that I really wish she was here with me between sessions and she very strongly said, “I am here.” It was comforting to hear, but it is so hard for me to know she is here when she isn’t responding to my emails (even though that is part of our set up.)
