I hope that makes sense...
I agree with the others that it's two steps forward and one step back. Be gentle to yourself. You'll get over her at your own pace.  |
It makes a lot of sense and I think that's how it is with me.
Even though I am getting to grips with life minus T and realizing life goes on beyond termination and rejection, I just really miss having that level of connection with someone. Even with family and so-called friends, it's something I'd never experienced before therapy with this particular T.
I am starting to think how I will address my attachment issues with new T and I'm afraid of scaring them off before therapy has even begun. Does anybody have any tips?
