I can totally relate to this....

There is no other relationship that's like the therapeutic relationship, and intense feelings are incredibly common. And it's so difficult to deal with the feelings that come from it being a doctor/client relationship...I too have wished, at times, that I never started therapy in the first place. But I also know that it has been good for me in so many ways...

Know that you are not alone.

From what I've heard, expressing your feelings in therapy can lead to a greater understanding of the root of issues and will help you recognize what your needs are, what is driving them, etc. That, in itself, is an extremely difficult thing to do.

My T encourages me to "be curious" about my feelings....easier said than done.
