Wow, that's a pretty good description. I can almost feel it as you describe it. I think that's sort of what I've imagined.I really just want to be held -- like, really held -- like a baby, forever, and cry and snuggle and nurse.
I think.
But I have to settle for this so I'm trying to find out what it is.
Yesterday my T and I talked about how I wanted my former T (who I left five months ago because it was hurting me) to hold me so badly. I felt like if she did, it would fix me. My T said it sounds analogous to being healed by the pope touching you on your forehead -- like I thought it would be magical. I never dared ask her to do that, though. I regret it now because I'll never know if that would have fixed me (as ridiculous as that sounds).
