SingDanceForLife, I think your note is really good at telling what is going on with you. But I think it needs a little coda such as, "This is what is going on with me and I would really like to discuss this in therapy with you. Can you help me discuss these topics with you and not get sidetracked on other issues that are less important to me now?" Maybe that is obvious and overkill, but you have said you have been dropping hints and she hasn't been getting them. This sounds like another hint as you say that this will "hopefully spark some discussion." So in addition to sharing your feelings with your T in this note, can you ask her directly, as part of your note, for what you want from her? Does that make sense?
