Oh my God, I am truly touched by all the responses. Thank you so much. I couldn't type more last night because my eyes were filled with tears and I could't see the key board. I feel like I have to grieve in private, because no one understands (except for you guys).
He was like my best friend...he understood everything and he always knew just the right things to say. When I heard the news I felt like now I am alone...but I am not thanks to you all.
I want to go to his funeral but I don't know if that would be appropriate.
The psy office said they would not abandon me, that they have another therapist I can see who my psychologist was mentoring. That made me glad because I hope his technique will not be lost. He was truly gifted.
At my last appt with him he gave me a book to read "How to Stubbornly Refuse to Make Yourself Miserable About Anything" by Albert Ellis, Ph.D.
I feel like he left me with something to take care of me.Thanks again everyone. If you don't hear from me for a few days...it is because I just need to grieve. I still have my pdoc appt on the 29th for the Naltrexone. I wish I had some now.
