Through e-mails, I've told my therapist how deeply attached I am. My little ones have told her "I love you", and she has said "I love you too".
 None of us have told her "I love you" outloud, outside of email. I called her last night and left a message and said "I love you" at the end of it... I wish I could delete her voicemails. Damn attachment. Now I'm going to panic for the long weekend! What was I thinking?!? Emotions took over... |

I understand. I'm too chicken to even say it in email. We've talked about love and I think pdoc would freak out if I said it - he'd misinterpret what I meant. I don't feel quite that way towards T. From your T's earlier reactions though, I'd say she was receptive and would understand.

Oh, you are brave. I would be panicking too though. If she has told your others "I love you" I believe she is still responding to the integrated you... and she will feel the same no matter who tells her. Take care.

stormyangels, that took a lot of courage. I think it was a warm, spontaneous gesture. Your T will understand.

That really took courage and I'm happy for you that she didn't back away from the statement.
I told T once in a joking sort of way that I still loved him...it was way back during March when I let him have it over insurance issues...ah the good ole days

Just thanking those who responded for their encouraging words. I don't know if it was couragous or stupid to be honest! She comes back tomorrow after the long weekend and will hear the message of me confessing my love outloud for the first time ever! Then I see her at 11am. My nerves are getting rattled!
Thanks. |

Well, it didn't go as I had hoped. It was kind of just looked over. This session I felt extremely disconnected. I had had a particularly hard Saturday evening where I wanted to "end it" and went off the deep end. I feel like throwing it all away. My attachment is too strong, and because of the disconnect I just want to walk out... Sigh...
