It has been since mid-October since I had my last session with my former therapist. Since then I have felt quite a lot of emotional pain because I miss her so much. I miss seeing her and talking to her as well. I was thinking about that quite a lot during New Year's Eve and going into 2019. My past therapist and I worked with each other for 3 years. I guess I got a little used going into each year working with her and seeing her. But this year it is not the case. I miss her presence in my life. She was integral to my life. We communicate with each other via email every 2 months. I like that she still wanted to keep that connection with me.

I emailed her about 2 weeks ago since it had been 2 months since our last session. There is this sad detail about the email. I feel that now that we do not see each other weekly, my former therapist is in the background of my life. I overwhelmingly miss having her in my life. I miss the constant communication. Ever since our last session, I think about her every day. There does not go a day by that I don't think about her. I see a new therapist right now which softens the pain a bit. It pains me that this year I won't have her bigger presence that I did in the previous 3 years.

I hear you. I lost my T of 10 years in September and it's been super difficult. I too have been thinking about my former T a lot. What I have been doing is crying. I don't know if that helps you but it helps me to get the emotion out. I don't really have any other advice. But I wanted you to know you were heard and understood. I get it. It's hard and it sucks. Hang in there. Kit
Thanks for this!

It's only been about 3 weeks for me and I think of him constantly. I get angry because I believe there is 0% chance he thinks of me anymore. I know he no longer cares and I never really mattered. It was all "just therapy" or "just a gig" (his words)

If I had a way to contact him, I would but he got rid of all that stuff. Moved on. I feel so lost, angry and confused.

I can completely get missing yours, I don't think it ever really goes away, it just likely gets easier in time
