I'm never sure what missing my T is all about. It starts out with thinking about her, and then it gets into these physical/sexual feelings, sort of like what Melba was talking about in her thread. Not sexual, but maybe just intense. It just comes over me all of a sudden.

Once my T told me that missing her was not all about missing her. Some of it is, but some is missing the good feelings I get in therapy, and some is transference. It's like being in love, sort of--though I hate using that terminology.

All I know is that it's painful. Makes me think it IS time to schedule the session. She did say I could call her just to say I miss her, but I feel embarrassed (even though I've known her more than 6 years!) to tell her that. I think 3 months is the time span I can be comfortable with in between sessions, not 4. The last month is hard for me.
