I clawed my way into the light but the light is just as scary.
I’d rather quit. I’d rather be sad. It’s too much work.

There really needs to be a button we can hit when something like this happens. I feel responsible if something happens to Captgut.

Captgut please call someone for help. I know that feeling of nothing can help but just someone showing they really care for you can shift these feelings you are having.

Breathing through it, as you would advise me to do. Hoping we can still meet on the 19th. It feels a long way away.

Please don't worry...
I was "talking" to T and I'm sorry if I made some of you worry.

I have no one to call. It'll be okay.

Reading some of the other posts on here at times does get to me. You made this point that it wasn't a sin to have needs and I took your words and I believed. Part of the reason I broke up with my ex best friends was that I felt like I wasn't being apperciated.

But you make me feel like I asked for too much.That I became too much. Even when I was on two sessions a week I had times that I struggled, what did you think would happen if I dropped down to one, If I was still the same?

I never called you. It wasn't multiple emails or texts daily. At that point I did email three times in a row, but it was weekly and we were on rupture 4 by then.Your replies weren't detailed essays. It wouldn't have taken more than 2 mins to write a response back. Perhaps I am being dramatic, but you chose to ignore both of those emails.

You told me 15 mins before the end that I won't have a session this week.We had a deal that I wouldn't act out and you would put a plan in for me when you next went away. But you lied. It was 18 days over Christmas and now it's 14.

It's not insane to ask you for extra support when I'm struggling.

It's not insane to ask for a plan when you're away. Why would your going away not affect me?

Don't call me when you come back from your wonderful family holiday. **** your boundaries and your therapeutic frame. Accepting the birthday and the Christmas presents were obviously okay, because they benefited you but what about me?

I'm so mad at you. I know it's my fault. I have a big mouth and I need to learn to keep it shut but why can't you just let me live my life or end it the way I want. I know it's your job but why do you have to do what you do. I agreed to do things your way even though it's making me feel trapped but then you kept pushing and demanding more and more. Now you're throwing me under the bus with my other doctors. I know you're not going to change your mind like last time and alter our contract.

I know you're happy you got your way but I feel trapped and betrayed. My mind is spinning trying to find a way out of it I know if I try to quit therapy in person now with you you're just make me go to the hospital. I'm hating myself and hating you right now. The worst part is that I know you don't care you're just happy things turned out the way they did. I don't know what to do my worst fears are coming true.

You're going to be so mad. Or confused. Probably both. I have so much to tell you -- it's been months and months since I've seen you -- how can I even scratch the surface in just one hour?

T,

I'm so stressed at work. One of my bosses bit my head off today. How dare I ask for help. How could I have been so stupid as to tell a C level I'm swamped and can he help? After all, I'm literally a mere support officer...

T,

I fear one day I'll reach my limit and break. You say you sensed strength and stability in me. That's because I can't afford to crumble or shatter or fall apart. I just can't because I won't get any help, my family won't magically become supportive. They didn't care when I WAS suicidal as a teen, so why would they care if I actually broke down?

Hi t. Yesterday morning before I met with E, I drove to your previous office, where I saw you for that first year. That seems a lifetime ago, now. And what a different person I was then. I sat in my car in the empty parking lot for a few minutes, and the tears came.

I don't know why I went there. I was early for meeting E, and realized I was close, and it just happened. Trying to find back that connection w you, perhaps.

While E helped me find some much-needed clarity about all of this, I am nervous about seeing you Thursday. About what you are going to say.

Sigh.
