What you post is helpful to a lot of us anyway, though for your sake I wish you weren't going through it at all! It makes me wonder about my therapy and the touching. My former T obviously thought "borderlines" couldn't be touched; my new T obviously doesn't "do" diagnoses and thinks touch is healing. Even with my sexual feelings, she hugs me. Every T is different. I wouldn't like it if my T would stop letting me touch her. It's helpful to me to see that touch does not have to be sexual.

I hope that you have a productive session and that your T addresses all of your feelings about what she's done. You have a right to tell her and to feel cheated about her taking away the hugs "forever."

thank you, rainbow.....I want to be able to tell her how healing it was that she did hug me, and that I am going to miss that terribly, and how much forever hurts.....sort of like the feeling that T considers me untouchable forever. and I say, but why?! what can have the power of a hug with the words 'it will be OK'......together very strong, but what can be so strong in its place for me? yes, I still feel cheated....
I am so glad your T does touch you and I can see how much you have grown and healed in the time I have been posting here....the power of touch is awesome.
