I would be devastated completely.. and even if he replies and says something like back off or don't write to me anymore, I will be completely gone.. and I think I don't really want a therapeutic response anymore either. I want a response from like a friend, like how you guys give me here.. The kind of non commital and blank slate response is the last that I need now also.I can totally understand that you want to contact him and that you hope for a friendly response. But didn’t you say he’d stopped being a therapist? So maybe he wouldn’t reply.

Or maybe talk to your new T about it? It takes time to get through all this stuff and sometimes it has to be revisited over and over again. But it’s probably important to keep doing it until it starts to get easier.
And, of course, keep posting at babble!
