My T made some new boundaries w/me :-( cuz I been really having a hard time and leaving messages and getting everything all mixed up in my head, until I'm convinced she wants to dump me. This all happens within 48 hrs. of last appt. So we gonna talk about it next week. She gonna have 1 appt/wk and 1 phone call/wk. and then its more clear to me. The phone call is so I have something to check in when I start to get all wound up that she gonna dump me. So she can reassure me.
I feel alot ridiculous about it all....
But I guess its what I need, and I have to let that be ok.
I need to let myself lean on my T some as part of therapy and the therapy relationship, but be able to stand on my own and create a network of support thru friends and family. I just don't know how to 'talk' to people really. I put on a good show, but there's a wall that won't be breached. Not even w/my T, though I think the wall may be weakening.
Its really hard when our T's are gone.
But really, we need to remember that they are comming back and its gonna be ok. Oh but its HARD.
Camp comfort is great.
Can you post what you would like best to see at 'camp?'.
Take care,
