I would like to thank everyone who has helped me over this past week. My replies to others' posts have been tainted by my mood, my apologies.
I am thankful for this place and the all of the people here.
It has been a difficult week, no doubt. I hadn't considered that I was reliving something from the past, at least not in full awareness. I keep thinking that I am just this needy loser in the here and now and I haven't been able to change it, and when I suppress it, it comes back with a vengeance or it threatens to tear me apart. Thinking in terms of this is past stuff has helped quell some of my distress. Thanks for that, Torn.

Fighting where we are and how we are feeling makes the work twice as hard.

So true, Sannah. I have been preaching about acceptance, and I had difficulty practicing it this week. Thanks for reminding me

Button, Thank you so much! I am also grateful to know you. Thanks for your help during my dark despair.
I see my T tomorrow and I need to remember what to tell him. I am looking forward to it, I need some relief. I won't see him the next week, because I am going on vacation, and even that has me stressed. At least I trudged forward this week, as reluctant as I was to do it. Not sure that I want to do it again, though.
What is it about therapists that they can relieve our stress whereas no one else can (with some people)? It's a very powerful position. I'm really curious. Hugs to all.
