I don't know if I'm not kind to myself as much as it is really really really hard for me to let anyone see that I need something emotional from them. Including my Therapist. I keep struggling with this issue. I would be interested to hear how you have convinced yourself that you aren't a burden and you won't eventually drive them away because you need so much support. AND, it is so one-sided. Ugh.
It was a good conversation, it made me think and he did understand what I was trying to say. He just doesn't think it is correct. We talked about the mind/body connection -- can you be healthy and be unhappy? (blood pressure, etc.)
Ultimately, he points it out as just another defense mechanism against me needing him. :(
