It's the dreaded Christmas break triggering some abandonment issues.

T's away for a month - well 3 weeks but almost a month tween sessions.

And she's talking of boundaries (ie no phone calls in middle of the night or at all; I've never done that, I just enquired), of unconditional love, of growing/developing from that phase, of frustration tolerance. I.e. to me she is saying cut the apron strings and grow up.

I want right now to be wrapped up tight in an invisible duvet in my docs room - so I'll be there while he's working but I can't hear him/patients and they can't see me. Kinda womb like and regressive. Oh dear.

I'm sorry the Christmas break is hard for you. I used to have a hard time with that with my former T when she was away. It's not a good feeling. I can relate to wanting to wrap up in a blanket and just be somewhere safe. I hope the break goes by quickly for you and that you have some joy in this holiday season. Kit

How did you fall into my fantasy? Therapy inception?

I've told my T a couple of times that I'll just hide behind her couch and wear earplugs just so I can be with her.

I can relate to this so well! It's tough. But we'll manage. This too shall pass.
