Sandy(the storm) destroyed my car and I was devastated for a day or two until I realized I had nothing of value in there and it was getting too cold to live in my car anyway... the destruction overwhelmed me and I am still in shock but I guess it was for the better because it has pushed me to look for a new T. I haven't been out of therapy for that long but it feels like it's been forever.

I took the advice of members on here and decided to look for a female T. I emailed one last night and I assume it will take a few days to get a response because the storm knocked out a lot of power(maybe I'll call later on in the week). I am so afraid of starting over in therapy. I am still keeping contact with my old T and I feel guilty 'moving on' and in a sense abandoning him as my therapist(even though he's staying my friend). He has encouraged me to start with a new T and I thought it would be easier than this.

I feel guilty and afraid. I don't know if I can do it but I know I have to.

Any advice?

Forge ahead. That's really all we can do. I know you will find a T that is a good fit even if it is not the first T you see. Keep us posted. Thinking about you. . .

I agree with Antimatter. It is difficult to find a new T so I wish you luck as you find a new one. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, and also best wishes that you'll get back on your feet soon as well.

Hi Empty,
I don't know your story at all, but the first thing that comes to mind is that I hope you find someplace to live soon! I'm sad you had to live in your car at all. And that it got destroyed by the storm.
Good for you for looking for a new t. I know how hard it is to still keep in contact with an old t while starting with a new one. I'm doing the same and have mixed feelings about it.
I would also e-mail a few ts if you can, not just one, so you can have a choice. Psyc hology today is a good place to look.
I hope this helps and you find someone good.
