If you've read a recent post by me, you'll know that I'm on a therapy break ... only for about a month ... but i'm still working and such (of course she gave me homework!
 )I'm half way through and doing ok ... but i had this feeling that I needed to send some kind of greeting to her for the holiday - i waited a couple of days to make sure it wasn't just an impulse and i sent her a short email last night. i didn't think of it as any big deal... ...but when I saw her email download into my inbox this morning, i started to cry. I didn't even care what she wrote (ok, maybe a little  )... it was simply that she replied and we connected through these few words that each of us wrote. it's almost like i'd been unconsciously holding my breath all this time and when I saw that email, i suddenly started breathing again.i didn't know i needed to connect. sometimes taking that risk is worth it. i have so much to tell her. i miss her.

You did great!!! It is so hard for us to reach back out to others when we risk feeling pain. You deserved that reply. I am so glad your T saw that as well.

I can relate...I just moved across the country to land a job and I am back to phone therapy. I emailed just to make contact before the holidays--yeah, it didn't even matter what he wrote because I felt relief just seeing the response in my email box.
Take care! |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
