I was at a dinner party last night and had to leave because I got triggered(they were talking about relationships and marriage and one guy got kinda graphic). Well, when I got home, I realized that anxiety and anger had begun to surface. I still have to call my friend back(the dinner party was at her house). I did all sorts of things to take care of myself today but now am stuck: My therapist has off tomorrow so I don't go in until Tuesday. I wrote her a letter(was going to fax it) saying that I needed to rest of the week off because I didn't want to come in and project, get angry, or deal with negative transference because she has been in relationships(she is married now) and I have never been in one. I feel extremely stuck and am really trying to help myself but right now I feel like isolating - how can she possible understand or even help me when she has been in relationships herself?
Should I skip therapy this week or go in? I really need some advice because I want to do the right thing.
Thanks!
