she didn't put anything in it? she didn't put anything in it!!!!

It's empty. My box is empty. The deal was she was decorating a box and she was going to find things that would become my "transitional objects" so i would be able to get through the week not seeing her. Guys, its empty.

I'm sorry. i i'm repeating myself. but its empty! That's all i can say. it makes me cry.

heres how the convo went. it was the very end of the session.

T- I did finish your box. It's over there. I finished it before you left, but you weren't here to give it to you. I had all the arts and craft stuff out from my younger clients so i decided to finish it.
Me- (smiles) Are you going to show me whats in it?
T- (smiles back) I didn't put anything in it! That's your job. You have to collect stuff that "self-help".

Then she described her own box she made for herself, and she told me that whenever she reads something inspirational she writes it down and puts it in the box. At this point i completely zoned out, and when she handed me the box it was all i could do to say thanks.

She must have forgotten what the point of the box was. It was to have things that she herself picked out that i could hold to take place of her when shes not here. She gave me an empty box! Do you have any idea how much that hurt considering what was supposed to be inside it?

It hurts. The box is empty. She gave me an empty box. Thats like giving a christmas gift with nothing in it. Thats like opening a present and only seeing the tissue paper. Its empty. My heart is empty.

Did anyone not get the point that the box is empty? Sorry i've said it so much. I'm still in shock, and feeling hurt. Please, if you could respond to this, even if its just hugs. But i'd really like some words of wisdom about what I should do. I'm hurting. It's empty.

I don't even want to open it, so her "air" stays there.

My God, it's so empty.
