Blog Subject:  So a few days later after going to my therapist...

....wow!

I've been wanting to post sooner how it all went with the photo's (see previous blog), but both the surprising outcome as a few really heavy and long days @ work prevented me to do so.

Still don't have much time, but here's a small update for those who are interested :) .

The session started off with talking about his new laptop (which I noticed and made a remark about) and that chit chat was with a lot of little jokes from both him and me. So the atmosphere was set lol.

Anyways, he saw I had brought along the photo's and asked if I wanted to talk about them. Long story short, out of the approx 12 pictures we only talked about the first two. And somehow - instead of making me feel uncomfortable or bad or something - it started to cheer me up.

As the day progressed I started feeling more uplifting by the hour until a state of really feeling good. I hadn't felt like that in many many years! I walked around constantly with a smile, went to bed with it and YES!!!! I stood up with that same smile the next morning feeling just as good as I did the day before!

(usually after a session I have 2-3 really horrible days, wearing off a little in de 2 days after that to enter into a mediocre kind of feeling, bit numb and inspireless)
That feeling stayed the whole day and today I still feel pretty good. A bit less than yesterday, but still pretty ok! I´m very happy with that. I hope I can hold this at least a little bit until monday, when I have my next session and we will continue with the photo´s.
