Grrrrr. As I have previously mentioned, I HATE the time of my session (Wednesday mornings, before school).

During the last session, I was very, very sad about my dad. I was crying only because I absolutely could not help it... however, I did not release even a tenth of the things that had the potential to come out during that session. T is aware of this. I told him.

I have left the last three sessions angry (the last three have been my new schedule-sessions). This last one was, by far, the angriest. I started feeling mad right as the session ended. I could feel the anger escalating as he was writing out my receipt. I said to him, "Since I am feeling a certain way, I will verbalize it. I feel like putting a fist through a wall as soon as I get out of here."

T said, "Through a wall, or through me?"

I hate his stupid, jackass interpretations (which are usually right on target, such as this one).

I told him, "I don't know." (Of course I knew. He knew. We both did).

Then he said some stupid crap that I don't even remember.

Then I stood up and put my hand out to demonstrate that I just wanted my receipt. He gave it to me and I turned around and walked out the door.

I hated him for not being able to say anything to make the hurt decrease. I hated him for switching offices, making it so much harder to find a convenient time for sessions. I hated him for not being able to go twice per week anymore. I hated him for not (hahahahaha, he just called me as I was typing this and now I'm laughing)

Anyway, before he had to call and rudely interrupt my list of why I hate him, I was going to say... most of all, I hated him because he is not my dad. And I only want my dad.

I did call him yesterday because things got bad. Then I called again afterwards and asked him if I could see him on Tuesday and Wednesday this week since school is on fall break (that's why he just called-- to tell me I can come in on Tuesday).

So yeah. Apparently I want to spend two days in a row with someone that I hate.

Is it possible, however irrational, that you are a smidge bit angry with your dad for dying?

Hell yeah. I am REALLY angry at him for not taking care of his damn health the way he should have. He'd still be around if he did. I ASKED him to always take care of himself because I needed him around, but he didn't LISTEN.

(((Pinksoil))))

Try to remember being angry at the person who has died is an entirely normal part of the grief process.

I'm sorry you're having such a hard time with therapy at the moment, but I'm glad you're able to get an extra session in.

So T is baring the brunt of it?

Well who else would? lol.

It is my anniversary present to him. Three years this month.

I think that's on the list for therapy 3-year anniversaries. 4 years is stomping on their toes.

I believe 5 has something to do with duct tape.
