Thanks for sharing your experiences with this type of thing. He sounds pretty intense. I wish my T did some of that, but I know that sounds ridiculous. I feel alone right now, so it's like I am craving any kind of touch. That same thing kind of happened to me as we were letting go from the hug...he had been holding me so tight that as he let go, I instantly felt my shoulders relax from the pressure he had put on my back.
Sometimes I feel like I am talking about a boyfriend too. but please don't think you are a slutty loser! but I do understand how it feels to feel that way sometimes. I often seem to become a mess after sessions as well...it's like if he didn't touch me or give me positive comments/compliments, then I feel like so let down. It kinda makes me mad. Like - had he never touched me or said certain things, I wouldn't feel that pressure or worry right now of things having to go a certain way. Because if they don't go that certain way then I'll feel like crap.
Therapy is so hard sometimes...especially with a male T. I've tried to see female Ts but just as you said, I didn't feel as protected or something.
