The first week in January, I stopped seeing a T with whom I've been in love for the past 11 years. I am still so in love with him, even after not seeing him for 3 months. He's even been in my dreams the past few nights. I don't know how to stop thinking about him, or distract my attentions elsewhere. I really do feel like I am crazy because of this.

I am seeing a different T now, and have no romantic feelings toward him, thank goodness.

With your last t, you stopped seeing them because of your romantic feelings towards them? Your choice? Did you talk about these feelings with them?

You don't need to answer if you don't want (obviously) - maybe you are trying to move on and forget the experience. Sometimes talking about it more helps though. I too experienced what you write about. It's overwhelming to say the least.

Good luck with your new t!

Were you able to talk to him about your feelings? Were you able to make any links between past relationships and your feelings towards him? Sounds as though something didn't quite get resolved or understood. I often feel that absence increases my romantic feelings and fantasies, so I can imagine it's tough for you. Can you talk about it with your new T? Hope you feel better soon

Sorry this is happening to you, I wouldn't say that I was in love with my Therapist who I for 4 years but I did develop a strong attachment to her and it was really hard to let go of her.
