I have been testing the waters with him. I sent him a link to a resource I mentioned in session and I said I would send it. No reply that he even received it. I sent him an email letting him now that I have been having so much trouble with coping lately that I was interested in trying Buspar or propranolol and what his thoughts were about this. No reply saying he received my email or even to mention we would disuss it next week. He just flat out refuses to reply. He never mentioned any rules about emails. Well I guess I know what the rules are now. It is a good thing I have zero attacment to him.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
