PS: Be safe.
SAME. I see mine at 5:30 tomorrow. I am praying that she doesn’t have to cancel. Tomorrow has got to be a hard day for therapists (in the U.S)

Dear T,

I wish I was the kind of person who would just go back to sleep after waking up in the middle of the night. No, I'm the sort, on a night like tonight, who checks the news... Hope I'll be able to go back to sleep at some point...

Love,
LT

Dear T,

I'm glad we were able to talk about things like that. And that you were open about your reactions, too. It felt almost like a joint therapy session. Or maybe two friends talking. It was cathartic for me, to be able to let out those thoughts (including the dark one about D) and emotions.

I'm also relieved you didn't try to put some sort of positive spin on it. Like you said, the most positive you could get was still pretty dark. I'm glad you're able and willing to go into the darkness with me.

Wait till I show you what my mom said about it--maybe that will help you understand better her effect on me.

Love you,
LT

Hi R,

In order to be a safe container, and do my work in the world...I need a safe container.
I'm still struggling to find my way back to feeling safe with you, and things like this (whilst unavoidable) don't help.

RC holds space for me beautifully, but I'm holding too much for a group.
It's too much for one person, really.

Thanks,

Lost

I woke up at 3:30 this morning and checked the news. No going back to sleep after that.

You seemed kinda hopeless in your email this morning. Which freaked me out a bit. You were all like "I'll take your moms word for it" when I said she said things would be ok.

But I did use the treadmill. For myself not for you.

Is this you not turning up? This makes me very nervous. I know that there could be any number of reasons for this, but those reasons include the possibility that you are dumping me like the last one did. I am not sure what to do. I am not sure what the normal thing to do would be. Probably to message you with a prompt, but that feels very uncomfortable, especially given last week. I am not sure what is an over reaction. I guess I will give it half an hour and then message you if I haven't heard from you. Or, more likely, I will give it half an hour and then still not know what to do because I am thick.
