Blog Subject:  Therapy session - 01/18/22

We went over me having broke the news to my mom about my dad having molested me. I was questioning myself a lot over how I reacted to it myself, but my therapist advised me not to pay it a whole lot of thought, so I guess I won’t. I expressed how disappointed I was on how it went and she provided a good point in that there’s never a proper way to open up to others about childhood molestation, that all that matters is my mom knows now. I mentioned bringing my mom along for these therapy sessions (an idea that came to mind then and there) and my therapist said my mom’s more than welcome if she wishes to join. I think that would be good because my mom, as mentally tough as she is, could use the help herself. I’ll mention it to her soon.

That is an excellent thought, and not one I would have come up with- I'm far too much self-centered to think of things like that.

For whatever it’s worth, you never struck me as self-centered. Quite the opposite.

I’m thinking twice about my mom’s inclusion now though. About to make an entry about it now.
