(((((((((((Granite)))))))))))))

It is not stupid to miss your T. You two have had a lot of breaks and that is hard. It is good you reached out.

Thanks for this!

(((Granite))) I think that it is good that you want to be in therapy with your T. I think we can get so anxious when they are away not only because we care about them but because we are so eager to get on with our healing and progress. We want to be happier in life and solve our problems so we really do want to keep on with our progress with our Ts, even though it is hard too, and we worry we might care about them too much or become dependent on them. I think it is very positive when a client misses their T because I think it often means they want to get better and do the work. It's kind of like a plant growing towards the light. Granite, I hope the remaining days pass quickly until your next session.

I concur. NOT stupid at all.

I feel this way ALL THE TIME. Mostly, I'm really, really annoyed by it, because to me, it's not a rational feeling that I'm accustomed to. And I just don't want to be bothered feeling it because I don't know what to do about it; so it's just there, every day, all the time. I miss my t every time I'm not there, and when I am, I clam up and am afraid.....terrified of fully opening up.

You're definitely not alone.
Thanks for this!

I so understand. You're not being stupid it all. I understand so well that you're missing your T. Its hard to have weeks when there are no sessions. Having your T is someone you can connect to and someone you can connect to. We all need that. My therapist has been gone for 2 months, and I'm justthisclose to going completely crazy without her, I miss her so much. I think its encouraging that you miss your T-- it means that you have bonded with her, which is important in therapy, and that therapy is a good thing for you.

I'm with you granite. I'm not sure why I miss T as much as I do between sessions. This week I confided in her that when things get really bad for me I will visit her website. I don't know what I am looking for when I do it, some feeling of stability in the chaos that is my life? It is about feeling connected.
Thanks for this!

I know. It's like a moth to a flame, kwim? I want to see him so much, but when I get to therapy, I shut down and am all like . Why???? WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?

I just wish I didn't have to deal with it. I'm learning to live with it though (begrudgingly).
Thanks for this!

i do this too ... i think it's her words ... they are an extension of her... i absolutely believe it's about needing some sort of connection.
