-My therapist. As always, she knows exactly what to say. I was finally able to talk to her about how grateful I am for all that she's done for me. A fitting time considering that this will be my last session with her until the new year. I am nervous about it I must say. I'm nervous to only be going biweekly. I was struggling to find the words on exactly what to say to her about this fear. I was trying to tell her that I struggle to reach out and ask for help. That's something that she knows. The thing I am just realizing (right now as I'm writing this out) is that what I'm really afraid of is being a burden. I don't want her to have to rearrange her schedule because I'm having an off day. Ha, I can hear her counter argument in my head now. "You're not a burden, your issues are important, etc." It's hard still to believe that's true, but I trust her so it must be. And that's why she's great. She has given me so many tools to be able to support myself on my own. And that is what I told her today. I told her how I admire her professionalism and advice. She took the complement with ease and grace and she yes anded me back! She said that I have been the one doing the hard work and she's just been walking along side. Yes, I'm fully aware that I've been doing most of the heavy lifting, but she's one hell of a supportive spotter. I could keep going with more metaphors, but I'll stop for tonight.
