It just occurred to me, are we talking about validation here? Is that what we crave?

I don't know I've been thinking all week about why I emailed my T and wanted her support this past week and then freaked out because I didn't get it. Maybe I wanted my struggle and suffering validated by her. Maybe is was simply what John Dewey referred to as the deepest urge in human nature--the desire to be or feel important. I think I just wanted her to appreciate how challenging the last session was for me.
