I wish I could take care of you (and your friends so you wouldn't have to worry about them).
I think it is fine that you are finding T to be a place where you can go and relax and unwind and be supported. Sometimes that is what it needs to be. But it also looks like from what you said, that while you may not be talking as much, there is still talking and sharing of ideas going on while you are in T. You mentioned that he would ask you about things that you didn't remember saying. So there is communication going on. That you don't remember it at this point I don't think makes it any less important. Part of you is able to express what is going on with you. And those silent times are not bad also. Sometimes we just need to feel connected to another person and know that they care about us. Right now it seems that T is providing that. You are busy taking care of others, we also need to be taken care of. Otherwise we burn out. And then we can't take care of ourselves or anyone else.
