Day 1: I am trying not to contact my therapist this week between sessions and see how I handle everything on my own without his emotional support.
I feel like I just lost a major part of my ability to function.
Anyone else want to try this?

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
