What you shared makes it feel like acceptable and part of the process.
Thank you!!

I have struggled with this a lot. My T said to tell myself.
"I miss T very much right now and it really hurts. This is OK because I never received love growing up.and now that I am receiving love and attention it makes total sense that I'd want more! As much as I could possibly get! This is good because it means my heart is still.open to love AND I'm experiencing the love and attention I need to heal. Its absolutely normal to feel this way. T loves me very much and even if she is not with me she is always in my heart, and I know with certainty I will see her again on --insert appointment time here-- so I don't need to be afraid of losing her love"
I can't express how much hearing her say this and then repeating it to.myself helped me.
