Oh yes. Same here. I have been growing more and more attached to my t, so that it's bordering on all-consuming. That feels all kinds of wrong, but I haven't wanted to rip myself away from her, because still, it's clearly not all about her as a person. She just taps into all these really powerful and conflicting feelings in me, and I have been processing my entire being and life and memories and gained a lot of insight. But now I was seriously thinking of ditching her for a couple of days...even looked for a replacement. The thought of having to leave her now just felt like being broken all over again. I couldn't stop crying, and the all day travel to my wife's family yesterday was seriously horrible. It can be such a heartbreaking struggle. I really wasn't sure if she's being cold and rigid in a downright abusive way, and I'm just drawn to that in a very dysfunctional way, (I have been before, in non-therapy relationships) or if I'm just so attached that I take any kinda signs of dismissal from her unreasonably hard. And then I read a blog post about the process of traumatic memories being converted into biographical ones and how it's important for a therapist to not disturb the process by offering comfort, which would just cater to the needs of avoidance and immediate gratification instead of helping the healing process along. I don't know if this is actually her reasoning or not, and it certainly would have been nice to be told if it is. Put it does put things in a new perspective.
