Hi Crushed,
Any ideas why you were feeling out of it? I would imagine it would be not only frustrating but disappointing to go through so much effort to make a change and then to not feel better or like you were making progress. Maybe best not to judge the transition based on one bad session. Would be interested to hear what Falls would say.
> My session didn't go great today. I was feeling really out of it and couldn't verbalize what was going on or what I needed or how I was feeling or anything. It was frustrating. And I'm left feeling stuck and uncertain and slightly miserable. Not sure of what I'm doing with the old T anymore.Also wondering why my decision would throw you into a tizzy?
>I have to admit (somewhat selfishly, I fear) that hearing that you're going back to see your old T throws me into somewhat of a tizzy.It was clarifying. And I'm glad I went. I need to say though that I'm not in love or in transference with my therapist at this point so my situation is different from yours I think. It's just much less about my relationship with her. I have a lot going on in my life--major stuff that impacts people I love in major ways and I need the best advise possible. So while it was no love fest, it was good to clear some stuff up and to be able to listen to her thoughts and advise and assess what I think of them. There was no committment to see each other again so I can just mull it. She made her pitch for me to see her more often than once/week and I just let it go, as usual. I'm not made of money.
> How did it go?????
