I miscounted. I have 10 days left.
Yeah. I don't know about that advice. I honestly think what she was trying to do was stretch out the idea of mindfulness. I don't think she actually knows how to deal with this situation because there really aren't any good answers besides don't put yourself in this situation. We both decided it was my only option and I had to do this. She never supported it though beyond recognizing that I have no other options. She wanted me to stay with her in the residential setting. She and I could have continued working on stuff through the break and avoided seeing them altogether.
So I think she really wanted to give some advice but really has nothing for this and neither do the other therapists at that place. I know her and I know she asked for advice from them on this and that was probably the best she got. My other T only told me to grin and bear it.
T emailed me this morning despite being on her vacation to ask how things were going. I didn't tell her any information about the memory, just that I have one and I can't seem to manage it and interact with them. We'll see if and how she responds
