I have a few transitional objects from L: a scarf, magnets she made me, something else she made me, she wrote in my journal, and emails. She also gave me something of hers to take care of while she was on vacation. I've already made a request for a rock, a bracelet (not metal...allergic to silver), and a voicemail. She said she would do those too over time. L is psychodynamic, feminist, and DBT.

From T I have a card, emails, a rock, and a stuffed animal. T is psychodynamic and DBT. And from an ex-T back when I was 18, a stuffed animal and an angel figurine. It was that ex-T who started me on transitional objects. They've helped a ton. But, thinking about it, my parents actually were the first though I'm sure they didn't realize it. They used to let us "check out" their stuffed animals every night. I guess it was our way of having a connection to our parents because they were otherwise neglectful.
