Hi rainbow8, I'm sorry that things are so tough for you right now and that you have felt hurt.

When my T does respond to my e-mails, it too is very generic. The other week I sent 2 e-mails on different days - they were very different situations, but were things from the past that had been triggered by things on each of those days. I didn't get a response form the first, but after the 2nd my T just wrote how interestng the similarities and differences were between each. I was a little taken aback - where was the sympathy???? But on reflection I think my T was trying to get me not to be overwhelmed by my feelings, but just to be interested in them.

I also wonder if the lack of detailed respnses are an attempt to try to get me to share these things in the sessions instead.

I do get disappointed when I don't get a detailed reply and feel alone. I also wonder whether therefore part of the reason for me e-mailing is just to check theat my T is still there.

This si such a tough journey sometimes isn't it?
