Hi,
Wow, that is a lot to deal with isn't it?! You must feel overwhelmed. It must be awful for you not knowing whether this will be a break or termination. Is there any way that you can find out (right now) what your living arrangements will be like after your vacation is over? It sounds to me as if you are studying abroad or something like that. You mentioned that for you, not being able to see your therapist once or twice a week makes you feel as if he/she is dead. I think the bean bag toy your therapist gave you can help you with this. Perhaps you can carry it with you for comfort and as a reminder that someone cares very much for you (he/she did give you a gift after all). You may also want to try writing about some of the good/happy events/memories you have had in therapy, and then re-read them when you feel upset or alone. You could even post them here if you felt like it.Hope things work out, hang in there.
