Wow that is pretty deep. Gives us a lot to think about. Thanks for sharing. I would have to say I agree except that I think the last one is loneliness because once you get to acceptance-----that is, you tell your T and hopefully they can help you through it, you realize there is a meaning to it and you use therapy to find that out, and in my case, realizing I didn't choose these feelings but that I was accepting of them and happy with the relationship I have with T(also part of accepting, not wanting more than what they can offer)---you realize at some point the relationship will end and that is heartbreaking. You have your heart professionally broken.
Had therapy today. I have struggled with this. I had told T before but told him again today how much my heart was involved. He was awesome as always. I am still very attached, in heart over head, but I am determined to put purpose into this very painful experience.
I don't know how loneliness couldn't be the last step.......knowing you will say goodbye at some point and maybe nothing else will ever measure up.
