I do think that positive threads often get fewer responses than negative ones. Maybe because there's not much to say besides, " glad it's going so well" of something like that.

I trust my T because she is honest with me, and because she obviously works very hard to be there for me. More than I expected. When she made mistakes, she was willing to apologize. She has enabled me to feel that nothing is TMI. She has proven that to me. Basically, she accepts me 100% and that's why I trust her. She's never late for a session, has cancelled maybe once in 6 years, and now always answers my emails.

When I thought I'd have to quit for financial reasons, my T gave me a reduced rate, which I still have. When my husband got sick, T was there for me even when I sent many emails. She came to his funeral and to my house.

I know she's not going to abandon me. I trust her word and her caring. I don't feel worthy of her love, but I trust that she means it. I have a very special T.
