With my current T its like the song Bright Eyes and the part that goes "I'm glad I didn't die before I met you."

But I still kinda think of my transference T a bit at times and I think of the part in the song Wrecking Ball that goes
"Don't you ever say I just walked away."

Dear T,

I imagine you'd give my conversations with H tonight a B average--an A for some, a C for others. I tried.... Though at least he said he'd let me know if he was annoyed with me about not doing something around the house, rather than me wondering. And I think the discussion about writing was pretty good. OK, maybe a B-plus?

Love,
LT

Pdoc wants to do a full count bloodwork. Cool. So he can see all my messed up numbers and the stuff I've been hiding from him.

Hi R,

It still feels like too much for an email, but I want to reach out.
Two more sleeps.

Speak soon,

Lost

You will if you want to, you won’t if you don’t. Just like everyone else I guess. Why am I like this. What mantra do you think I should do to fix it.

Hi R,

Today's session was one of those where I felt like I was speaking a foreign language.
Usually I can trust you to translate, but I felt the distance, even though we were in the same room.

I found it uncomfortable when you said you felt that your cough had created a 'barrier' between us.

Hope it settles down soon.

Dear T,

I said you were likely accurate in a comment you made today, but I didn't want to say exactly *how* accurate. Yes, I wanted to "win you over." I think I have. Not sure whether you'd admit that or not. I mean, maybe you'd say all clients win you over right away. But I guess I mean something deeper than that, not just your "liking" me as a person, but your caring about me on a deeper level. I feel like that happened during the pandemic, if not before.

I don't think I can tell you that. Maybe it's enough that I feel it, that I feel the caring. You don't need to say it explicitly. (Maybe it says something about my therapy that I *am* able to feel it without your having to say it?)

OK, I need to try to write more about this.

Love,
LT

Hi R,

I guess I'm really grappling with the enormity of this...finally.
Steve was so many things to me...and now he's none of them.

There's a difference between not being able to stay in that space, and not being able to visit at all.

I don't think my support worker knew the impact it would have when she asked whether I'd heard any more about my 'friend' at the cathedral.

I couldn't explain.

Speak soon,

Lost
