This upcoming Tuesday will be the second week that I have not been able to see my T because she is away on vacation. I won't be able to see her until the 22nd of July. It's taking way too long.
It's like the days are just crawling by, I actually miss my sessions with her. Even though I don't talk a ton with her yet. Maybe it's because so much has happened since she has been gone, including the issue with my brother. I am trying to stay really busy. I get upset with myself for actually allowing myself to feel this way. I never needed anyone before, so why now? The crazy thing is she is on vacation with her family having a blast and I am probably the last thing on her mind, scratch that, probably not on her mind at all. Yet, it's so different for me, this stinks. This is why I have such a hard time being vulnerable.

I know it's hard on me when I have to miss a session because my psychologist is gone on vacation or whatever. I've been through that. Actually, beginning in May, I started going to a different psychologist because the one I saw-& she's really good!-suddenly was no longer able to come because something happened. To make a somewhat long story short, when I found out she wasn't coming back, I cried. I still miss her terribly & love her to pieces!
  I do really like the psychologist I'm going to now, too. She's really good.  I'm glad you're keeping busy; July 22nd will be here before you know it! Take care!

Staying busy is a good idea, but I know how hard it is to work so hard to stay busy and still miss T  I wonder if instead of beating yourself up for "being vulnerable" and "needing her" you can just accept those feelings?? I know that for me, when I'm missing T and then compound it with "I shouldn't miss him, I shouldn't need him, I shouldn't be vulnerable" it just gets 34857934573 times worse. Sometimes when I am missing T I write letters to him. It helps get things out of my head, and when he comes back, if I still need to talk about the things in the letters, I do. Thinking of you, and hoping the 22nd comes soon for you

My T is also on vacation, and I haven't seen her in weeks, so I know how you feel. It does feel as if the days inch by slowly, and the upcoming session with T is all that I have to look forward to. I admit, it is EXTREMELY difficult, but try to find something to occupy your time. Also, something that has worked for me is finding ways in which I can feel connected with my T. There's this band that we both listen to, and I know she likes, so to try and stay connected in a sense, I've been listening to them A LOT since she's been gone. Take care!
