It is hard when you are in a bad place and feeling needy. You start to feel ignored by your T but their boundaries haven’t changed. It is just your state of mind that has. It is hard not to get mad at your T and feel abandoned because you are not thinking clearly. I also have trouble asking for what I need. So I end up expecting her to read my mind. It has taken me a long time to learn to step back and evaluate my own part in this T relationship. It still doesn’t make feeling needy any less painful.

I have a very hard time asking for what i need to and it's something i need to work on because i often need to reach out in between sessions. Hugs. I am afraid that if i reach out too much that my t and day program will abandon me.

I have been in your place many times. I do everything I can to get contact from T. Minutes feel like agony and the days between sessions are unbearable. I know that is an active child part and I am not my best adult self.

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. |
