Senator P. Sorry I didn't explain about the bears. You'll probably think it's silly, but my T thought it was a good idea. I read a blog on PC called "A Love Affair with your Therapist". It wasn't about a real love affair, but about how some people (not sure if it was about women and Moms only) need to make up for the relationship they didn't have with their Moms, and how the T can do that. The author bought 2 identical teddy bears, one for her, and one for her T. When her T went on vacation, the author/client took both bears home with her and it helped her to feel better and not miss her T so much.

I emailed the article to my T and she said we could try that if I wanted to. So, I bought 2 cute little bears and she keeps one in her office, and I keep one at home. At my last session, I said I was going to take hers home with me. She said, how about if I take mine with me on my trip instead? I liked that idea better. It meant SHE would have something of mine. So, I have my bear at home, and she said she'd take good care of hers.

If I think about it, it's the dumbest thing ever! It's about that "parts" stuff you're not too crazy about. I don't know if any man would go for this idea. It's a girl thing, though if a little boy missed his T, I suppose it could work too.

I bet you're sorry you asked!
