Hey all,
TGIF! I am so glad this week is almost over. I am doing better and slept really well last night. That had to help. I was SO happy to finally get home. Right now I have Jimmy Buffett playing, and that really lifts my mood.I actually did think about calling my T. I guess part of my difficulty in dealing with my transference with him is that I am still resisting it. I don't want to have to need him. So I guess I'll just wait til Monday. I feel like I have a long list to talk about; I may make a list or write a journal to try to get some stuff straight in my head before then.
But I'll probably end up talking about how I resisted calling him. Part of that is I also tend to make things more urgent in my head than they really are. For example, I have to tell my husband about a potential leak in the bathroom RIGHT AWAY, even if he is just getting awake. Or, I have to tell the director how things went with the GA's RIGHT AWAY. I finally decided I could sit with things until the next meeting with him (also on Monday) as it really did not require immediate action. But I have trouble with that.Now, would y'all believe that I ran into that same client at the event last night? Ugh, I don't think I ever talked with her early on about how we would handle incidental contact on campus or otherwise. I felt awkward. We did not acknowlege each other, but I was worried that she would perceive rejection. But I called her this a.m. to check in with her and offer to process it before next appt. if she needed to. I think I needed the reassurance more than she did :)
Of all the dumb luck! Definitely a bad karma week. Glad it's almost over.
Hope all of you are doing well.
