Never tell your therapist you are attached to them.
Never tell your therapist you depend on them.

You get punished for showing any improvement.
He started his session off with "We need to discuss cutting sessions down."
I saw the change in the way he dealt with me. He did a complete 360 after an email I sent him 3 weeks ago and saw the slow change after I tried to talk to him about my transference.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. 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.
