I don't ever remember thinking of it as loneliness. I remember longing for my therapist between sessions. And that's getting better. I think I *may* be starting to internalize him.
Maybe it's like the first blush of love. At first, it's new and exciting to share your thoughts with someone, and such an enormous relief. But now (nine years later), I don't feel that much anymore. I even feel like I might be able to see him once a week instead of twice. The feeling of safety is going with me better (at least when I'm feeling well).
