1. BIIIIIG rupture with T yesterday. Feels like a huge setback into anger and hostility; she says no, these are emotions that have long been repressed & are coming up now, and that's a very good thing. I hate that they are leveled at her, through transference. She said she is NOT giving up on me, that is so important for me to hear.

2. Have been struggling with guilt over the fact that she had postponed her vacation indefinitely till I got through some critical work; now she has been offered a free triip abroad so I no longer have to worry about interfering with her private life
In fact we essentially get a 3 week break and I think it couldn't have come at a better time. Changing to weekly sessions intensified the pressure more than I could have imagined (I am in awe of all of you PC folk who go weekly, or even more often!! )
I think when she gets back I may propose we go to a 2 wk interval.

In the meantime I get 3 wks off too, and from this end of it, I am OK with that. It will take a while to get myself put back together after yesterday's meltdown.
Thanks for this!

I'm kind of short on words right now, I apologize. I am SO glad your T told you she's not giving up on you. Hearing those words from my own T has been so healing for me, I hope it felt that good to you, too.

mostly, here are just a bunch of hugs for you:

Rupture and repair are part of the healing. It's awful when it's happening, but there is peace eventually. You know I'm an expert on ruptures

Sometimes we need a break. I hope that you are able to rest and regroup and that you'll come to PC to let us support you while she's gone.

Thanks for this!

thanks so much for your replies and hugs, ((((Zoo and Tree)))), I need them so badly. You are kind friends.

this break will be good for T, also. She did leave a message last night, saying that she IS going to be there for me, she definitely IS NOT giving up on me. That will be the air I breathe till she gets back.
