In reply to Thinking too much about therapy.., posted by Asya on January 26, 2004, at 14:50:39

This happened to me when I first started therapy. And on this board I've read so much about very dependent attachments and obsessions with therapists, that I consider it to be a completely normal reaction to therapy. I am about 10 months into therapy now, and it has settled down somewhat. I still think about my T a lot, and still imagine conversations with her, but it is no longer interfering with my everyday life. It's more of a refuge in my mind that I go to when I need to. So in my experience, it does get better. It's a shame you will have to finish seeing her so soon, because it might take a while for these feelings to settle down to a point where you are comfortable. Don't torture yourself about it. Tell her that it's getting you down, then you can work it out together.
