I think that as much as we like to think we are bonding with our T's ... Mine brought a reality home recently amongst my depression. I suppose we wish our T's to empathize...but to what degree? Mine said... no matter what kind of life you are having, my life is just fine. That was an interesting reality. It has stayed in my thoughts for the good part of a week or so. That did kind of hurt but it is a reality...and a separateness.

At this point in my therapy, I would probably pass out if my T said this. SG, in what context did he say this in? What was the purpose of his statement? I don't mean to interrogate, I'm just really interested. I want to find out his purpose, and then think about how I would feel in that situation because the focus of my threapy right now has been the separateness between us, or how I perceive it.
