I agree with 88Butterfly88 -- you should call your T, captgut. Just tell her how you feel. I'm sure she'll do whatever she can to help you, and I'm certain she wouldn't mind you reaching out to her in this time of need. That's what therapists are for.

At least you reassured me that you aren't disgusted or offended. Thank you.

Dear T,
Yay for tomorrow is Tuesday and I get to see you. I think about therapy (and you) constantly. I told you i was longing to go further than scratch the surface of all my anger. Can I really? I am so afraid of my anger, it may take a while longer. I am grateful for your kindness, empathy, and patience. Still Searching~ |

I am really out of sorts because I need to talk to you to figure me out. Runcible Spoon, I agree with you, I have no idea how we are going to get in only an hours worth of therapy with all that I have to say/want to know.
Am I dealing with my Shadow/independent part/ angry part? Is this real or just in my mind? You talked about object constancy, can you elaborate? Am I asking annoying, idiotic,, stupid, non-informed questions? I hate being me right now. Am I really just fine, no problem, but I think I have a problem? This may sound stupid but it is really, really driving me crazy. Work will hopefully help me, I hope I can focus on something other than myself. I don't know if that's possible.

I feel like I am a bad person for needing T to answer all of these questions. I feel that I am just mental defect, a dysfunctional idiot, and that the reason T didn't respond to what I said last week was that what I said was just a who cares situation and not an issue to be discussed. I keep feeling like if I can just get all of this situated so I have a narrative, I'll be able to go back to making progress. I honestly believe this as it has worked before. And I worry that getting better is not an option, that I will be living with this the rest of my life.
This is all so humiliating, petrifying, an just plain devastating. I want to just give up on myself and just shut the **** up. As hard as I try, it is really hard to like myself. What is driving me crazy might not be real.

Dear Info,
So this week’s Chronicle of Higher Education digest has an article about faculty and mental illness. I clicked through, naturally, then followed a link to the mention of

ATAT — I’ve set up your cage matches (multiple rounds — can’t decide on just one round) with Blondie in Fall and Spring over the next several years (like any hit show, it’ll be renewed season by season + there’s paddle tennis seasons to consider, per Blondie).
My mental health is at stake — just sayin’. Hope Piaf is a tad more useful

There was a documentary on Kurt Vonnegut on PBS yesterday (its like sometimes my television has these special little surprises just for me!). He talked about his mother's chosen passing, and how he did not make a similar choice because of the youngsters, and thats how i feel about my nephew. What kurt said, and i must have heard him say it before, i realize now, is that you never want the young ones after you to think that its a good way to solve problems.
Besides, haagen daz is still coming up with new flavors. Ok kurt didnt say that, i did. |

What if my optimism that these feelings will fade is a naive pipedream and I will continue to long for you and forever feel an emptiness in my soul that you are not a part of my life? Tell me this won't happen. Does the end (if there is an end) justify the means?

For what it’s worth (which may be nothing, considering I’m mocking her near constantly), current T told me that she was in her 30s, working as a therapist, with two kids and a husband and seeing her own therapist thrice a week. I think I’ve said this before here but she said the feelings were so strong that she’d take her vacations to coincide with his (and now she somehow thinks her clients, including yours truly would do the same but that’s a different matter!) and ended up spending her vacations thinking about therapy (not always but enough that she still has strong memories of it). Fast forward a few years later (she didn’t tell me how long she was in therapy) and her therapist has retired and (if you disregard my kvetching about her) she’s none the worse for it. |
