I had an appt with my T today but it was for my 5yr old son not for me. My husband and I brought our son to see my T about anxiety. He has been having problems with worries lately/stomach aches that are anxiety related. It was so cool to see my T talk to my son the way she did. My husband was at the appt to and it was great for him as she talked to him about his anxiety just a little bit (my husband has vowed to NEVER go to a T to talk about his anxiety or anything for that matter - I think he could only benefit but whatever).

There's a big part of me that feels really sad about not going to be able to see my T come the end of the summer (insurance reasons and I'm coming to a close on lots of issues). It's going to be really, really, really hard on me however I now feel connected to T in a different way. I feel connected to my T through my family now as she has helped me and my husband be able to help our son.

Bittersweet and I feel a little less 'alone' about the goodbye I'm facing. I feel like I have a shared experience with my T and my family that I can carry with me. A transitional experience of sorts.

I don't get on line as much as I would like these days... thanks as always for listening.
