I voted yes, because of the therapeutic process, and also checked yes, because of the therapist. For me, the two are inexplicably connected. I'm in transference and am also attached to my T, but s/he also hears me and validates my feelings when warranted. I've also become addicted to the experience of feeling something...anything. My isolation was so complete for the past six to seven years that cognitively, I'd done damage to my brain. (Who knew brains need other brains to survive?) Abandonment and loss, along with trauma aside, therapist and the therapeutic process are rewiring my brain. How could that NOT be addictive?
