I should have been more clear. Due to the type of surgery, I am on limits on things I can and can't do for 2-3 weeks. (including driving and very limited walking) So I need to stay with my mom so she can help me and help take care of my dog. That's the one place in the world, emotions are not ok. So if I was still struggling and it felt "intense" I'd be unsure of how to get those out, since I can't do much there but ya I can post here.... maybe I'll be lucky and my surgery will magically erase my memories and pain all together

Ya it seems that so I'm not open to 2x a week anymore. I just thought it would be a good way to get it done faster.

But that would probably help with the attachment issue, and you could still work with them during your recovery from surgery. Just a thought... no idea how insurance works with them though.
I would consider if it wasn't a huge trigger in itself. One of things I don't discuss here about T but ya the video chat stuff was "our thing" and not very T like at all. I miss it and we discussed doing if after my surgery... and then hell happened. I don't think I'm in a good place to handle this, even though it has perks.
