Hi Rigby
Ordered the book on Amazon and can’t wait to get it now, it sounds ideal. Thanks to you and Fallsfall for the recommendation. It takes the edge off the embarrassment when you know you’re not the only one who has the problem and I hope the book will give me some more clarity in terms of how to deal with it.
I had this stupid situation with my therapist where I avoided talking about anything that showed me in a bad light, the same as when you start a new relationship and only want to show your good side. So after I deal with the embarrassment I’ll have to tackle that if I go back to the same therapist, otherwise it’s a bit pointless if I only want him to know the nice things. Do you think that dealing with your transference helps in your life and relationships? I’d like to think so, but I'm beginning to realize that the person I am is so wrapped up in father figures so to speak, I can’t imagine anything else.
Take care.
