If Blondie is the norm (and I think she is), therapists have a pretty solid compartmentalization thing going on.

Blondie had no idea what I was talking about (looked totally puzzled) when I said she’d get emotionally affected by stuff and won’t be able to enjoy her time off.

She basically scoffed and said that I have absolutely no need to worry that any of my stuff will affect her time with her family and then I think she realized how cold that sounded and so, she tried to backpedal in a very Blondie-like way on how she would like me to be connnnnnnected and suppppported etc etc.

Bottomline — if your therapist is open to being contacted, just do it.

Thanks, pal.
Thanks for this!
