((((((Rainbow))))))) I haven't read that book, but would love to hear what you think about it after you do....

*sigh*.....I guess that I don't have much to add except that I am so sorry that things hurt so bad. I don't want to go into specifics so as not to steal your thread, but I lost a couple of people dear to me a few years back and this really intensified my dependency issues with my T. Honestly, up until I read through this thread, I guess I did not really connect the two- losses, and more dependent on T. I am sure that there is a correlation there. What you said that you emailed T, about if seeing her forever would be like your mom didn't die.....it just touches me. It's like we have some holes that are just so deep and painful and there is this un/subconscious desire to want to fill them with something that will make them feel better....

I DO think that you are healing.....for me, the times that it hurts the most are the times that really take my healing journey to the next level. Hang in there.
