hmmm more food for thought. Yes Secret, I'm sure your relationship with your T is very real. I think that in my case, I have the tendancy to fragment my life into pieces. I can deal with these pieces as I wish and not deal with them when I don't feel like it. I fantasize a lot and can just use my magic to make things go away. Kind of in the same vein as my dissociation. On some level, T knows this so for me, in order for therapy and our relationship to be real to me, they must exist outside the context of the room they occur in. That makes it less likely for me to be able to use my magic and make him go away! Wow, that's trippy. Thanks for the feedback.
