Goodnight @Shaz51. Super big thank you to you and @Former-Member for making me giggle and thus lifting my mood.

I'll leave this for you and @Former-Member to use (or not) as you wish @Phoenix_Rising ...

@Phoenix_Rising

Good morning @Zoe7 @Former-Member @Shaz51,

I cannot begin to tell you how much better I feel this morning, simply for having had a bit of a giggle with you last night. Super big thank you.

I super love your picture of Pebbles, Zoe.

Super big giggle @CheerBear. Now I know you must have eleven fingers - how else would you have managed to count those hours! I am just doing a flyby to say goodnight. I will be heading over there --> to see if you've shared any news shortly. I have had a nice day playing with data - definitely a flow activity! Less than ten hours now until I see TTT. I will report in tomorrow about what toys I got to play with. Good night super best not-friend in the whole entire Universe.

Good morning @CheerBear @Former-Member @Former-Member and anyone else out on the ocean today.

I just got home from seeing TTT. She is SO definitely the person I have been looking for, for the past two years. I so super badly wish I could clone a copy of her to send to you @Former-Member.

A little thing that meant a super lot to me was that when I went in, along with the things she always has on her table she had the particular fidget toy that I had chosen out of the box last session. Yep, she definitely has a super strong sense of how to help someone feel safe.

It is SO HARD starting all over again with someone who knows nothing about my story. Mostly we talked about Fred and about my turtle whisperer dumping me. I felt super validated by how much she said it wasn't ok that my turtle whisperer had dumped me in the way that she did. She agreed with me that this had done very significant harm. She's also freaking out a bit about the ethical dilemma that Fred presents...and I haven't told her that much of the story yet.

The following exchange between us was my favourite bit of the session. The context was that she was saying she has no intention of dumping me but can't totally guarantee it because we can never know the future. I asked her if she was planning to have another baby and from there the conversation went like this...

TTT: I'm not planning to have another baby, but you never know, I might fall pregnant, I can't guarantee that I won't.

Me: Er...yes you could, you just need to not have sex.

It turns out that TTT isn't committed enough to her clients to abstain from having sex with her husband.

I really super like TTT. I found her!!!!!!! Two-and-a-half years after leaving Fred and twelve brain-destroying therapists later, I FOUND HER!!!!!!!
