Thanks for expanding on this subject Daisy. And to TryingToBeMerry, I have those same feelings sometimes, of just wanting to sleep until my next appointment with her. My T. and I once talked about undivided attention, and how hardly anyone in the world gets an hour of undivided attention from anyone. (except when you're in therapy). Much less once or twice a week.
I never thought about the idea though that therapy can actually make me feel lonely, because of that lack of intimacy in my regular life. (especially as I am single). It makes a lot of sense.
I also think therapy simply opens up a lot of wounds and leaves me feeling raw a lot, and that's a lonely feeling.
