::pats self on back::
Just got back from seeing my counselor/therapist lady (hereinafter known as "L").
She's very nice, and she actually believed me! I have issues with thinking I'm not going to be believed (about almost everything).
L said what I went through as a child *was* trauma, and it's no surprise that I have the issues I do (body image, self esteem, self confidence, insecurity).
Now begins the hard work. I got a regularly scheduled appointment time for 4pm on Thursdays. That way I can go home and think/process/cry afterwards and not have to back to work afterwards.
This weekend should be fun, but at the same time, I'm also dreading it.
Starting at 8am tomorrow morning I will be traveling in a single car with my parents & grandma to a big city 6 hours north to see a special King Tut exhibit at a museum. We also have family (grandma's son/my uncle, and my brother) in that area that we'll be visiting.
I'm really looking forward to seeing the King Tut exhibit, but not so much to the family drama overload that I know will be happening.
