Yes......all day long if I am not focused on something else.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors. |

I find this hard even admitting it online- I want a forehead kiss from my T. I want to be cuddled. I want to sit in his lap and have him read to me. I just want to feel safe, but I see myself as a 7 year old in all of that.

Lemon cake
I hate reading and one day joking told him to read to me and he started doing so from this book he wanted me to read, I didn't say it for any child like feelings or anything but it did amuse me. It turned into a convo about what he read, so it worked out nice Maybe you could casually toss the idea out there like that. |

I have often fantasized about my T tucking little me into bed at night and then telling me that he will be right here and that I am safe...and then he goes and sits in the corner of the room and works at his desk. T knows about this & has been supportive.

Holding therapy?! Oh how I wish my T did this! Some sessions....
Labrat, you are so not alone. Your feelings are intimate but not inappropriate or anything to feel shame about. You are able to think about allowing someone close to you. That is great! Love has walked into the room for me regarding my T too. My fantasy is going to sleep together, with her holding me, telling me how much she cares, how much she loves me. I welcome the feelings. It hurts because this scenario will never happen, but I know it's part of my healing. What happens if you just allow yourself to feel it? |
