SG,

Sorry I didn't answer this yesterday. When I was in your shoes this was the burning question and still kinda is. Many would say that I haven't given this enough time. It's been 3 months since my unexpected last session. Thats not much time to grieve over the loss of someone who is so important in your life. I can't say that it has gotten much easier but it has gotten a little easier. All I could think about when I left was, how do I get back in there? This can't be the last time I'll ever see her. It was painful. My T broke it down for me by saying that she is now dead to me. I balled for hours but he was right. I needed to see it like that. Just having sessions lined up and talking to him about how I missed my former T helped too. Having sessions lined gave me something to look forward to, I get to talk about my former T (or in my case, talk a little and then listen to him talk about her alot) Those sessions definately helped. I think it may be hard for you though having your sessions in the same building. All those memories will be with you when you walk in. But this is your marriage T so talking to someone familiar is good too.

In your post to Daisy May, you said everything perfectly. That was great advice. Follow your own advice and you'll make it through this. When I'm at my worst, I say to myself "this won't last forever". I know it feels like it will, but we will move on.
