Is this attachment run amok? I cancelled for this week, but seriously may have to stop if this crap keeps up.

I am sorry to hear your dream is distressing you, even though,consciously, you know it is just a dream. Stopdog, I get this. When I am distressed or feel TOO close to someone or a particular situation, I feel I need to get away from it. I want to RUN away. FAR AWAY. I don't want to be vulnerable. When I allow myself to be too vulnerable, I get hurt. It's happened many times, as a child and as a grown up, in therapy and out.
I don't think this is "attachment run amok", quite the opposite....I believe your attachment to your T is working the way it is designed work in therapy and it is new, exciting, and scary.
I hope you reconsider and reschedule your appointment.
