Lately, I've been thinking a lot about therapy and it's similarities with addiction and wondering if any others who are attached to their therapists feel the same?
Each week I live my life whilst at the same time always hovering in the background is me waiting for my therapy appointment day to come along...some weeks the wait in between can feel incredibly tough and painful and long and start to feel too much...It's almost like going through withdrawals but just then when it starts to feel soooo bad that I can't cope BAM! It's therapy day again and I get my fix and I'm okay...When I'm with my therapist even though we talk about difficult things all is okay with the world I feel like I could stay there talking with them forever...After the session at least most of the time, I feel warm and fuzzy for a few hours but then as the days go by it slowly starts to wear off and the cycle starts all over again!
Not sure what I'm getting at here just sometimes I wonder if I'm staying in therapy for the right reasons and that it's really helping me. I think it is but sometimes hard to see or know. Anyone else in a similar boat?
