Thank you both for the follow up (starting around 32 minutes) to the "Borderline" conversation. As someone with severe childhood trauma, I often worry about being "too much" for my therapist. And sometimes I am "too much" for councilors. I don't want to hurt my therapists, because I like them. So that is stress as well. It feels good to know there are the right therapists who manage people with higher traumas who can and *want* to help me. It is just hard to find them.

Just a little note about the listener struggling with hating their body. although it's tempting to advise them to "love their body" that is a really challenging feat for someone who has probably hated their body their whole lives. A lot of people find comfort in the idea of body neutrality, basically meaning their body is not the most important thing about them. Bob's totally right in that it's usually an indicator of deep shame, so finding out what that shame is about can really be helpful.
