To me it sounds that nobody ever set proper boundaries for you when you where a child - boundaries that would have made you felt safe and cared. Perhaps the parents not setting boundaries and limits meant that they did not care about you much. Now when the T is setting limits you recognise that this is a form of parental caring that you missed out in your childhood. No wonder you crave for it.

Unfortunately or fortunately, you cannot remain a child forever. At some point you have to start growing up and start setting your own limits to yourself. It is the job of your T's to ensure your growth and make sure that you learn this limit-setting.
