My T says it must be frustrating for me not being able to cry there, (especially after seeing her about 100 times!) and it IS frustrating because sometimes I really wish I could, but the tears don't come. She says that crying can be 'over-rated' though; some think you have to cry in order to work through things but it's not always like that.

> Poet it's sad to hear that you cry on the way home! I think it does have something to do with trust, it's not like we're not able to cry because we do but just not when we're with THEM so it has to have something to do with them! I wonder if it's about letting go and showing the full extent of our vulnerability... I do it with words but with tears its a whole other thing... one day...
