Thanks everyone. Its so weird, because I am constantly doubting why I'm even in therapy, yet when I overslept last week and missed it, I was disappointed. So, I feel like I do have some sort of attachment to her, but I dunno.

How to achieve your potential and dreams. I think most T's love to help with things like this. It's very positive work, both for them and the clients.
my T has asked me what I see for myself in the future, and I just shrug and say I don't know, because I can't see ANYTHING in the future. Its been like that since I was graduating high school. I flipped out and just could not see myself in college, like I couldn't do it. I went to college, and it ended up being an amazing four years. Same thing with graduating college, I just could not picture myself in the "real" world. I had a bit of a nervous breakdown for two months, but have been living in the "real" world for almost 5 years. YET, it all has seemed fake, or like my life is a giant fluke, a giant "woops, got lucky here!" kind of mistake.
