For me, when I started allowing myself to e-mail or leave a voice mail on a long therapy break, it was kind of a sign that I was willing to try to hang onto the attachment.

Interesting insight...and you're right. I think my email to T was definitely a sign that I want to try to hang on to this connection. Which means, maybe this time the past WON'T repeat itself.

She will be back and you will reconnect, even if it takes one or two sessions to get back into that full connection it will still be there when you first meet back up. Remember she isnt abandoning you or not seeing you becuse of any personal reason, shes just taking a holiday and will be back, hopefully refreshed and able to help you even more.

I KNOW, and my T promised that even if I pulled away, she'd help me reconnect with her. But, knowing and feeling aren't always the same. I'm actually looking forward to my own vacation, and I think I'll be fine with not having a session next week (I hope). Hopefully, we'll both come back refreshed and ready to get back to the tough things I've been working on lately.
