Ouchie ouchie ouch, I can relate to what you're saying. I was falling in ... something, with my therapist, and it felt wrong and bad bad bad because I knew it had to be unreciprocated. I learned to be important to myself. I learned to see myself through new eyes. Well, okay, I'm still learning all that but it works. Can you try that? New contacts with people really helps. See how positively people respond when you're "acting as if"... whatever makes you feel good. Take that on as if it were really you, and pretty soon, it *is* you.
That works for me, but of course, seeing my therapist really unbalanced what was left of me at the time.
..... psst. He changed my life, but now I can't get him out of my head! That makes me so angry, what right does he have to be in there? How did he *get* there in the first place?
