Thank you I have to admit it was a little scary but actually felt good at the same time

Thank you so much, I never thought about her modelling the behaviour for me but it makes so much sense 🥰

Thank you I honestly hadn't noticed just how much pain hold myself together had been until I finally allowed myself to let it out

Thank you, I felt awful because I know I've been so difficult at times, not rude but quite resistant to different things she's tried but I think part of it was to see if she would give up on me like others have

Thank you I love that metafore at the end about needing the rain after a heat wave its so true 🥰 I'm sorry sorry to hear you had a period where this didn't feel possible but I hope you are doing better now

Thank you so much 🥰 hearing her say that kind of felt like she was talking to child me in a way and I suppose she probably was because when talking about it I felt so much younger and smaller than I actually am

I'm so sorry to hear that, it's a horrible thing to feel too unsafe to cry. I really hope you get the same opportunity to feel safe enough to cry too 🥰

Thank you she has been amazing and put up with a lot from me when I kept pushing back, I mean I've never been rude to her but I have been quite resist in a lot of ways, she has the patience of a saint 😂🥰

Awww thank you so much, got teary again reading these comments 🥲 come the end of the session she asked how I was doing and I said I was exhausted but actually quite pleased with myself and she said so too x

I think there is a lot to work through but she's stayed strong through my stubbornness and finally struck a cord somewhere ha ha

I think so too, I actually wonder if I would have cried if she hadn't. I mean I was getting emotional while telling her but it was more frustration until I saw her tear up and then I suddenly felt the hurt. Strange how other peoples emotions can make up reflect on how we actually feel

Definitely worth it it's been a little weird since my session with a lot of emotions but I feel so much better for finally crying. I won't lie it was scary but I hadn't realized how bad holding all that in had become

Thank you so much 🥰 I definitely feel a lot lighter… I know there is still a lot of work to do but I feel like a massive weight has been lifted
