Sunrise,
Monday I decided that I was just too tired, unfocused and mentally fatigued from my reactions to the last session, dealing with the course this weekend, and the typical crap I deal with daily to attempt more self discovery this week. I email my T explaining this and saying that I thought in my current state of mind that I did think a session this week would be very productive. If she thought there was a benefit to coming like this to the session this week to please email me back and I would come. Otherwise cancel my session. Now having canceled my session this week, I'm kind of thinking that I don't want to go back, at least for a while. I feel like should trying handling stuff myself now, therapy is just not productive anymore.
I don't feel like I've burnt the bridge, or at least I hope I haven't. I think I could still call her up and schedule an appointment down the road if I chose to.
Miss C, I am feeling like I've back slided a bit. But I'm OK, I now have a better friend supports.

To become attached, experience the transference, and work on our issues in the context of the relationship?

Earthmama, I think I started to go in this direction, hence my comment about losing focus. I think my therapy was about helping my family not dealing with my past. I think the attachment and maybe transference that was occurring was not appropriate for me.
