Oh man a couple months ago I had to back off a topic because my therapist was obviously about to cry and just barely holding it together... I'm trans and was talking about my worries with how the US is going. They have trans kids and I think my concerns were hitting close to home for them. It was a difficult session for everyone x.x

Did you recommend going to therapy to your therapist?

[–] [email protected] 70 points 3 weeks ago (10 children)

In some countries it's actually required for therapists to periodically see a therapist. To avoid getting retraumatized by their patients trauma and such

I've been told by my therapist I have the worst case she has ever seen. Yes I'm winning it ;)

I'm stuck at the tutorial boss ("how does that make you feel?")

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

unironically sat 2 hours in pure silence because there were no other inputs from both sides. so i rather just sit the silence out in isolation

I did this too! Started out as a "test" or temper tantrum, but afterwards it felt so safe he didn't start talking, that it really was a space where I was in control.

Stupid clever therapist.

sounds positive, glad it helps you. my message was more resignation based ^^

“And where do you feel that in your body?”

[–] [email protected] 33 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (5 children)

To this day I don't understand this. My therapist used to ask this so many times and every time I was like:?? In my brain???? Where thoughts and feelings live???????

Can someone explain?

Edit: the fact that you nice people here were able to make me understand this question and my therapist did not reinforces why I stopped going!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

I was always annoyed by this question for the same reasoning. However, as another person already said, you can sometimes feel it in some part of the body. When feeling bad, it feels like pressure in my stomach, there a a few other.such connections. Now I find it somewhat useful as part of mindfullness.

I do still get annoyed when asked this question, partly because whenever he asks the question i do not feel it anywhere, also it seems irrelevant. But the main reason is probably defiance that this seemingly stupid question of him was sensible all along. So much I had to write this response.

There's definitely some physical manifestations of your strongest emotions. Strong feelings of fear or anger trigger musclular reactions in your belly, strong feelings of anxiety or tension in your neck, love and contentment in your chest, etc.

Perhaps they were trying to find those physical connections to gauge the emotion or intensity?

So if you lose therapy .... you're going to need therapy for that

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 weeks ago

I think if you lose therapy, The witnesses will need therapy.
