Reply to "Awful Session (Session Update)"

Thank you all and I hope to answer individually when I have more time. What I was feeling (as I can remember) when I heard the knock was that I had to run away or escape and there was no place to go. I felt terror and panic. I felt trapped and I knew there was real danger on the other side of the door. His reception room always represents danger to me because it's not a protective space due to his wife being able to come and go and I have no idea when I will be face to face with her.

I am struggling with the contradiction of T telling me there are no pictures so as to not contaminate my therapy yet his real life wife is working there and walking around and chatting with him outside in plain view. Why can't he just understand that this also contaminates my therapy? I just want him to say that he understands this.

TN
