I am a regular therapy crier but today hit differently. As soon as I started to cry, the tears kept pouring out. My therapist moved the tissues closer to me. I was going through so many that she brought the trash can over. I felt really supported and held.
Towards the end, she gave me a couple reminders. I started crying again because of something I coped with really well as a result of our therapy. She asked me what was coming up. I felt bad because we had already discussed it earlier and I didn’t want it to seem like I was trying to get more time. I genuinely could not control my tears in her office today.
Did I mess up? Do therapists get frustrated by this?
