In reply to Therapeutic pressure, is it real? do u relate?, posted by bell_75 on June 10, 2004, at 7:55:09
i sometimes have a "i better hurry up and heal" feeling because i'm certain she thinks i'm moving too slow, whatever. when i ask about it, she is reminds me that i will know it's time, we will both be in agreement, etc. about termination. it causes me anxiety so i try not to think about it. i guess i feel pressure to "work" is all but i don't feel so much pressure to heal. is there a difference? i do feel sometimes like i can't live without her. on a thinking level i know this is ridiculous, but my heart doesn't agree, so i wonder what i can do to ensure my spot for years. i've thought often that i hope to get sick of therapy because it's the only way out for me that won't cause me to be sad and heartbroken for the rest of my life. i love my therapist more than i've ever loved another person. man, if i could transfer all those warm feelings into a love for myself the sky would be the limit!
