Dear T: I really need to tell you something XLVI

It is not fair when an act of trust backfires this spectacularly.
I've been sitting in 'He did what?' all this week.

It's not ****ing fair.

SlumberKitty · Apr 11, 2023 at 02:10 PM

I miss you. If you weren't on vacation we would be having our session in a little less than an hour. Boo.

SlumberKitty · Apr 11, 2023 at 05:16 PM

I am a bit mad at you. Even though you haven't done anything wrong. Just you are disrupting my life with your vacation. But honestly there is probably not another good time to go on vacation because I always have issues. I do miss you. Ugh. So annoying. Hope you do have a good trip at least. Enjoy the time with your family.

LostOnTheTrail · Apr 13, 2023 at 03:02 PM

Today was possibly the first time I have ever wanted to lie down after a session.
This feels like some kind of threshold moment.

velcro003 · Apr 13, 2023 at 04:32 PM

E: I am already apologizing in advance for tomorrow’s session. My walls just got smashed down by being told I most likely will not likely be able to say goodbye to the kids, or my co-workers, or the parents. I am shattered. I was already feeling guilty that I have left them a long time, but now, to never see them again?? I can barely breathe I am crying so hard.

They have been my livelihood for the past 13 years. And boom, I am just gone. No explanation. How will I get through this? I also see the doctor for a follow up after the MRI. So who knows how that appointment will go.

it's all good though

Stop confusing me with your other clients, the stuff you say makes no sense. I tell you about how I was hopeful that my family would want to celebrate Easter, imagined taking the baby to the park with them....they didn't want anything to do with it.

But somehow you fk it up and say IM the one that doesn't believe people want to connect with me? Uh wrong, I thought they would! But they didn't! I always think I have a good connection with someone, until they show me that I don't. How is that my fault? I think you are too used to another type of client.

I hate it when you take 3-week holidays. I hope you’re not dead. 2 more weeks to go…

LonesomeTonight · Apr 14, 2023 at 05:08 PM

Dear T,
Please reply about scheduling sooner than later. I know opting for 2 sessions next week was my choice, but I partly did that assuming you'd be available for the regular 3 sessions the following week. So learning at the end of session that you won't be (at least not all the usual days) is triggering some annoying abandonment stuff (I didn't mention that though).

It would be great if you could reply tonight, as it's a scheduling email (which you classify differently), not a clinical one. But maybe you have stuff going on? And part of me wants to be like, "Actually, I might prefer the option of 3 next week, if it's possible," but I don't want to send another email. So I assume you'll present me with the available options and let me choose.

Plus, OK, I feel sort of vulnerable about some stuff we discussed today, but really don't want to send a separate email about that. But I imagine that's playing into this stuff.

Love,
LT

Dear T. Still miss you. But not bothering you while you are on vacation. Can you telepathically tell I'm not doing well and do some telepathic healing back to me? That would be great, if it isn't too much to ask! Kit

Mountaindewed · Apr 14, 2023 at 05:27 PM

I didnt think of you much at all on my trip. I just enjoyed myself.

ArtieTheSequal · Apr 14, 2023 at 06:41 PM

Y'know something - it's been really, how shall I describe it, liberating? the stuff we talked about last week re: understanding/being on the lookout for the complexes that we named. It has been so very helpful lately, I can't even tell you how much. Thank you. H & I had a really great but short weekend (we came home this afternoon, instead of staying one more night, as the hotel screwed up our reservation so were were both all eh, let's just go home.)

LonesomeTonight · Apr 14, 2023 at 07:11 PM

Dear T,

Or maybe you won't reply tonight...I mean, had you told me before I was literally walking out the door today about being out that Wednesday, I'd have just asked about this in session today...I also worry that your not replying suggests that you can't accommodate any of my requests. Or that you're annoyed by them. Likely, you're just busy. And figure it's not urgent. Which is true. I'd just rather know.

Love,
LT

velcro003 · Apr 14, 2023 at 09:11 PM

Help. I can’t do this.

LostOnTheTrail · Apr 15, 2023 at 07:52 AM

You've urged me not to prepare for our next session, but I don't want to waste a word.
I don't know what to do in that situation.

LonesomeTonight · Apr 15, 2023 at 10:49 AM

Dear T,
Thanks for being accommodating.
Love,
LT

AliceKate · Apr 15, 2023 at 01:01 PM

I think I need to stop seeing my mother. She is the lead in my apple, the cryptonite to my (super)(wo)(man). She feels better, and I feel worse.

Mountaindewed · Apr 15, 2023 at 03:55 PM

I wanted to throw up a couple times this week to make my stomach feel better. Even though I'm not binging on food. I just haven't felt good physically and I'd feel so much better if I could just throw up. But I refuse to go down that road. But I want to discuss this with you at our next session and see what you have to say.

velcro003 · Apr 16, 2023 at 12:59 PM

Dear T: I am anxiously awaiting a reply from you about my schedule changes. It most likely won’t be a Mon or Tues, bc my break is shorter; but I didn’t get to talk to you last week. Stupid school break!

ArtieTheSequal · Apr 16, 2023 at 01:22 PM

wowsa the dream i woke up from this morning when the alarm went off. so much there that I can work with!!
