i almost wept with relief reading this, to know that others feel the same way about letting go. Someone mentioned What will be left if i let it go, the pain is so much part of who i am not that i will be an empty shell. I've always felt guilty for feeling that way about recovery. My therapist says even letting the pain go is a loss in itself and a grieving process.

Peaches, can you let your therapist know that this work is making you feel like you need her more, maybe she can support you more outside of therapy while you go thru this intense process?
