Hi kerria,
I was thinking of you when I posted that post. I had been worried that it might upset you. I'm sorry if it did.
I too feel isolated a lot. My T wrote me a note a while back that really made me feel understood. I'll modify it a little to suit you:
"I feel very strongly that life has not been kind to you. I see you as a caring, compassionate and brave person trapped by the traumas you have suffered into a survival mode that cuts you off from yourself and the world."
It moved me so deeply when he wrote that to me. Like he understood how hard things are for me. I know you find life a lot more distressing than I do, but I still see you a lot in this comment. I hope it helps you to feel understood too.
This might sound really lame, but often I'll look to books to feel less isolated. For example, I really relate to a lot of things said in "Got Parts" so when I feel very alone I sometime re-read those sections to feel like I'm not so alone in the world. I thought you might relate a lot to sections in "Amongst Ourselves". Have you read that before? Does it comfort you at all when you can relate to what the author is writing about?
I know that a book is a pretty poor substitute for a real person. So if this is too lame you can just ignore it.
Also, I'm glad you could go back to your other T. I know it's not the ideal situation for you, but it is a small step towards settling your life down a little. If he's not the right T for you, then perhaps he could assist with support and stabilisation while you continue your search for another T.
Sending you warm thoughts.
