Dear T,

I'm looking forward to seeing you this week, the break was just fine for me. I've discovered this week in my social world that things that used to bother me or irritate me or feel hurtful do not. That I can more clearly see what or who is good for me and who isn't, and adjust what I choose to do accordingly.
Thanks for this!
Anastasia~

Dear T,
Yay, you're not dead! I guess it says something if that's what I was afraid of regarding your taking a long time to write back, not that I was concerned you were annoyed with me.
See you in a few hours,
LT

Thanks, hope yours does, too.

Oh, and T included an exclamation point in his response, as usual (I think you hated that the woman used them, right?): "No worries on either account. See you this afternoon!"

I think that's cute!!

I was just looking for reasons not to like her, because I know I get attached to everything and everyone.

I am going in and out of the 'dread' state which comes close to being intolerable. Sometimes I am okay, but even when I am, I know that the dread is somewhere within and that it will return but don't know when. I wish you could magically make this all go away.

Dear T,
Think I have about 3 hours of potential content for today...glad I opted to do today and Wed. instead of just Tuesday. So then I just have to squish it into 2 hours instead of 1...
See you in a bit,

Hey L I wanna talk more about this woman centered thing because those words when you said them so resonated for me, repeating them back to you felt so right and made me feel so ridiculously happy, and I'm working on figuring out what it means to me, what if anything it might mean for my marriage, all that stuff. I'd so love to have a longer session so we wouldn't have to stop so soon!!! But I won't ask for that right now while I'm paying the reduced rate that would be wrong. Well, at least I've already paid through the end of the month so we won't have to stop and leave time for the money piece. I am not sure how the paying monthly thing is going to work for me though, part of me feels like I need the reminder every session that this is a business relationship not a personal one especially weekly. It's hard for me to remember that anyway.... Looking forward to Thursday....

Oh Lemoncake- I am wishing you well- R better come back soon. He is away too long for the constancy that you truly need to be safe.

This reminds me so much of when Chris was ill, and the one person I wanted to talk to about Chris being ill was her.

I need you to help me cope with your not being here...Navajo rabbit!

I forget, does she work in a practice where you could check with the receptionist or a colleague? I think you could just send her a very brief email at this point, like, "Hope you're doing OK. Let me know what you think your timetable is of being back." I just know some T's try to let the client reach out, so I'm hoping this wasn't a case of miscommunication, like she thought you'd be in touch with her. I'd be going completely nuts at this point, so I understand. But still I think a brief email would make sense. Even something like "Just checking in, hope we can meet soon."
Thanks for this!

Dear T,
Oh God I can't believe I shared all that with you. Do you understand why I was hiding behind my hand now? Thanks for listening and being caring and not seeming too weirded out. And for saying that you'd "never" take away handshakes based on anything I said. To be continued Wed. (unless I start freaking out tonight and email you--glad you said that would be OK).
Love,
LT

I suppose I could check in with the colleague, but she would wonder why I hadn't taken the call initially. Although the colleague's call was what turned this from ****** situation to crisis, IMO.

For some reason today T, I am really scared to see you today. And I had a dream about you last night that you were so caring and loving. Really strange since I don't usually have dreams like that. I know we are going to talk about something for what will probably be the entire session and don't want to talk about it. I don't know if that's what's making me scared, or is it a feeling of dread?

(I almost feel physically sick and I don't know why. It shouldn't be feeling this bad)

T - c/o Edinburgh Castle

I was thinking about how you said you're an 'arachnophile' on Thursday, and how lovely that was to me, and then I went and looked at my secret list of all the interesting words and lovable things you say, and now my heart is aching a little bit.

I think I would like you a lot even if it weren't for all the transference and attachment bollocks. I know I would.

You never talk about family, and I'm glad of that, but sometimes you mention your friends. I think you have a lot of friends. I'm jealous of them.

I miss you... my stomach hurts now.

Dear T,
Thanks for the quick response. I kept telling myself it was OK but I think I needed just a brief confirmation from you (hence my brief email instead of my usual novel). It made me cry, even though all you said was "Yes, all is well. More to discuss Wednesday." But you gave me what I needed.
Love,
LT

I'm hearing that you love her and hate her. (Fair enough. I've been there. Still there, in fact.)
