I don't have much to share....

It's been two weeks since my last session with T. I can really tell we skipped a week - I miss talking to her. Feeling kinda pathetic for feeling "needy." I don't think this feeling is loneliness...I have people I can chat with.

I tell myself it's not that bad. I will see her in two days.

I hope all these feelings result in a productive session on Thursday.

I haven't seen my T in almost three weeks. And it'll be another week yet...
I have people I can talk to too, but I want T!

Me too... My T is at a conference this week. I miss her so much and can't get her off my mind. I can't wait to hear her voice again, see her smile, and feel the safety of her presence.

Yes, me too. I want T!

I can't imagine going three or four weeks. I'm sorry, Just Shakey..

Is that what I'm missing..."The safety of her presence".?? Yes, maybe that's it?
Thank you.

I miss the safe place to dump everything and someone to tell me I'm okay.

I went 6 weeks without my t a little while ago. It was so so hard, but I learned a lot during that time. I actually feel I grew during the time she was away. I could acknowledge my love and care for her better (it was too hard before) and how lucky I have been to have her as a t. Maybe, to make the time go easier, you can look at yourself as a curious scientists and see what you can learn?

I'm trying to keep busy. I just re-seasoned two cast iron skillets. Lol

I want to tell T about Oprah's SuperSoulSunday program about Madonna Badger. Madonna Badger lost her three young daughters and two parents in a house fire three years ago. Madonna said she wanted to Sui so many times...Madonna's doctors didn't know what to do with her. One of her therapists observed that Madonna was not crazy or mentally ill...she was just very, very sad. Her T explained that the parent/child bond is a real connection: one giant nerve connects mother to child. When a parent or child dies, that connection is abruptly severed. It can leave the survivor with a giant raw exposed nerve.

I can't imagine losing three small children and both parents in a fire. I can't imagine how to survive with that many exposed raw nerves.....

But I do strongly identify with the T's explaination. That is what it felt like for me to lose my mother four years ago.

I have tried to add a link to this program. It explains this better than I can. It was an "aha" moment for me...
