I'm home recovering from surgery. I'm doing well, just going slow and listening to my body. Again, many thanks for the well wishes in my prior post : )
So as I'm here recovering I feel very much at peace and do not miss seeing my therapist. It could be that I'm just too tired to want to go and that I'm focused on my recovery. This is not meant to slight my therapist in any way, I'm just paying attention to the feelings that I'm having. Maybe being in my home where it's quiet is what I need. I have to look inside and wonder if going to therapy makes me feel worse.. worse in that I become overly dependent on my therapist. The thoughts that I have about my therapist can be exhausting!! Right now I'm not having feelings of dependency on her, she's not on my mind much at all and I've only emailed her once.. just to let her know that I came out of the surgery safely. I have no intention of emailing her anymore.. I see her again in November and that is perfectly fine with me. What I'm wondering is if anyone else has experienced what I am regarding their feelings for their therapist. Thanks!!

I had surgery 3 weeks ago and I felt the same way! Maybe it's the anesthesia! Now that I've seen my T twice since my surgery, I'm glad, but I don't have those overwhelming feelings of need for her. I hope it keeps up for you too! What I do have is pain, and I thought I was recovered. The doctor said it's still early and normal. I hope you recover uneventfully. Hugs and get well wishes.

Thanks for your well wishes : ) I'm getting there.. I saw my doctor today and he said I can go back to work after 8 weeks.. I'm taking that as a gift : ). The weather is beautiful here and I hope to be outside enjoying it once I'm up to it. I'm glad to hear that you are getting better.. take it slow! It's interesting that we don't have that overwhelming feeling of dependence on the therapist during this time.. admittedly I laughed when I read how you said maybe it's from the anesthesia.. lolol. Take good care!
