Please dont feel stupid. What you did was very brave and maybe very neccessary. Writing has been the only was I can tell my T about my feelings towards her. I too have recently felt much closer to my T as I am going through a rough time right now. I feel more needy and clingy and I hate it. I wrote her a letter two weeks ago (which i read to her during the session) and i explained this. I wrote that it felt like we were both on opposite ends of a rope and i was pulling so hard as if daring her to let go but all the while begging her not to. We talked about it and how I was testing her. I wanted to see if i was too much for her. If she was going to give up on me and "let go of the rope". I dont think she will and i hope you can get similar reassurance from your T. I encourage you to talk about it. I think you will feel better if you do. Maybe try writing some stuff down and reading it to her? But again, dont feel stupid and try not to dread the appointment. I know its hard but you are on your way to feeling better.
