I think it depends alot on attachment style. You might be avoidant like me
I tried to push long term t away about 8 months in when I knew the feelings were strong and it scared me. However I decided to plow through it anyway. It lead to a huge rupture but we got through
I never did with baby t. I truly didn't care at all about anything related to him. That was amazing
T3. I felt the urge strongly after the second session. In this case not attachment related at all. He just scared me in the sense that he envoked emotions in me quickly and intensely. Also he reminds me in small ways of t. My mind I think is taking my anger on t out on him. I'm not worried about attachment here for several reasons. I'm more worried my intense emotions will overwhelm me and I'll quit. He knows I feel this way though
I think it's common to feel this way and ok to talk about. Most ts wont turn it into a rupture. my t had his own feelings that factored into that.
Attachment sucks for sure but just try not to let it overtake you. The key thing is setting your own boundaries and limits.
Good luck
