My therapist once gave me a teddy bear a a TO. It didn't feel right, so I gave it back to her a few days later.m I do have a silk cloth my therapist gave me from a mama drama we did together. It became my security blanket. It was in my car. I use to sleep with it, use it on the airplanes as a pillow, and take it on all vacations, or overnights. I would even take it to therapy when I knew I was going to fight getting comfort from her. A few weeks ago, I was telling a friend about my blanket. It's about the size of a queen comforter., and it was telling her I realized I hadn't used it in 3-4 months. She was surprised that I had it and laughed about it, not meanly. I was not embarrassed or ashamed. I was never aloud to have TO when I was a kid.

A lot of family is coming from across country on Wed. I had a major project that I blew off, and was sleeping too much and eating too much, and took off on a bunch of many vacations. Well I retrieved my blanket from the closet, and got my project done, and sent an email to my ex therapist about the FOO grumblings even before they've gotten here. She gave me a helpful response. So thank you FM, and thank you blanket.

So, It's not weird at all. I don't know how old your kiddo is, but maybe he'll let you borrow it a bit longer. My teen kid just knew what I was up to, and did ask why I had it in the airport. "The airline only provides free blankets in first class.

Good luck in holding onto it.
