This sounds like really significant connection. I hope you can share with your T. It will probably give him a lot of insight.

I see again this is more about my past than T...I've never reacted to him like that before and he is hurt and mad...I can tell. I wonder if we can get past this?
I think you can. Hold on to your memories of some of your other great and reciprocal experiences with your T. They are reality too. Let them help you over this hump. I am glad you are keeping your Wednesday appointment. Your acting out by canceling got his attention, but it shows a lot of maturity on your part to be able to deal with this by talking directly about it with your T.
