| can someone help me understand...
why is it so important that I cry in front of my shrink? i understand that what I am doing, discussing horrible things with a monotone, no expression on my face either, isnt so healthy but the thought of losing control or crying in front of someone makes me feel uncomfortable. my shrink says I have to feel the emotions in therapy in order to heal. I feel them fine at home all alone, but when it comes to talking about them in therapy, I cant bring myself to cry. maybe if someone can tell me why it is so important, I can force myself to do it. I really do want to heal, and I have never broken down in therapy in all the years I have gone. I am totally dissasociated from my feelings when i'm with someone else. I've tried everything else, prolonged exposure, was willing to try EMDR but she didnt think it was a good idea for me right now. Ive tried everything except crying and suffering in front of someone. sigh.
