Wow, it seems like this really hits close to home for a number of people. I want to thank everyone for their posts. It really helps me to process it more, as I did not really get to spend much time with that pain in the session due to timing and obligations the rest of the day.
But I know that deep down pain. I think I started with it in therapy, and did not know what it was. That was scary, as it did indeed seem like a bottomless pit. That has gotten better, so I guess this just shows me that it is a very deep pit with hidden coves and pockets that still need to let out some of that noxious stuff.
I think y'all are right that my T was trying to say that I need to grieve the loss and move towards accepting it. I'm glad to hear that has helped others. I definitely need to spend more time processing this.
But not tonight. (I sound like Scarlett O'Hara!) Thank you all!
