you are not alone, my old t, whom i miss dearly, its only been a week by the way lol, she told me to use imagery in stressful situations and we practiced in her office. She told me to picture her in my mind. That really helps me alot, she has told me to picture me sitting next to her or in front of her whereever I am when I am in distress or need her to be there, it takes practice, but it really works, we practiced in sessions.
