Today I wanted to tell my T I saw on Jane Pauley show where they were talking about different therapies to overcome your fears. Well they showed how EMDR works, which my T does. I told him before when it was on a couple of months ago and he seemed interested, so when I saw it was on again, I wanted to tell him.
But when I called he was in a session, so the secretary asked if I would like to leave a message. Well when his voice mail came on I froze and hung up. I couldn't say anything.
Even though my sessions have been great, very personal, I am wanting to retreat now. I am scared to get too close to him. He has been disclosing a lot lately, which doesn't bother me, but why is he doing this? He is disclosing stuff about his interests that are VERY simular to mine. Why is he choosing now to tell me? I am getting scared that I am liking him too much. I just don't want to get hurt if I am totally rejected after therapy. It scares me to really like him. Why is this? Now I want to hide and not do therapy, I feel like I am getting too attached or something. I just don't know, do you all have any ideas?
You know I do see him once in a while at the gym, and it has made therapy feel different. I am now doing therapy every 2 weeks. Things are going a lot better for me, so why am I shying away from him now? Seeing him at the gym helps me get through the 2 weeks until my next appointment. I am just confused especailly when I thought I was almost done with therapy.
