I think it's about being 'held in mind' - if the therapist has other clients we can't possibly be important enough to be held in mind any longer - we disappear, perhaps we are forgotten? That can be a very painful and frightening experience - for me I experience it as a drop, an abandonment, as if I no longer exist (it's very early stuff) and then often go into crisis. We have been working with it for years. Horrible
