Yes, my emotions are directly connected to the loss of my T and probably also to childhood issues even if I can´t point out certain events at the moment. As your T says, I also think it´s a good thing to feel sad emotions but you then have to have the possibility to process them.

For me, I now just grieve on my own and besides feelings of loss there are sad feelings around the problems that brought me into therapy. It´s hard bearing all this. I think you can find other ways to feel better but when you come to a point when you´ve tried several things and that only feels like artificial solutions, you have to work on your issues in a proffessional setting.
