Two's Tantrums

[orek]

Yes, I can imagine! I still have a hard time letting this 50 something body be seen acting like a child with our T. We've only been seeing her for a few months, so I was surprised when insiders, esp. kids, wanted to come out in therapy so soon. It took years before anyone did with our last T! We got to the point where we finally felt safe and comfortable switching in front of her, but after 9 years with her, she retired. (She had planned to retire sooner, so we were lucky to have her that long.) But even with her insiders bonded before upfronters finally were able to do so. She told us toward the end that she worried upfronters would never get to that point, which surprised us. We weren't aware we were still holding back! So no surprise it's the same with this new T, but still, so soon!

Do you feel self-conscious about that in therapy? Or anyone else? Just wondering if anyone can relate and, if so, how you deal with it. Cheers.
