>>>Then when my T goes away I feel forbidden from asking for those things from him.
I don't think I feel like it is forbidden, I just know I don't have access. For me it feels more than she is on a deserted island, unreachable. I'm really okay with that intellectually. I'm glad she is taking care of herself and spending her time as she wishes.
Regarding my daughter, yes, that has been so rewarding. I smile when my T is dead on right. More times than not, it's just the right thing to say, or the right line of questioning to explore. My daughter shares a lot of teenage angst with me and sometimes all I can do is listen --- which is a good start, and sometimes all she wants.
Self-talking would be more difficult. I'm getting feedback from another person who has a completely different perspective than me - i.e. she doesn't think that nobody likes her.
When your therapist goes on vacation, do you want access? What has he offered you in the past? I never asked but I know she leaves a name of another therapist on her machine in case one of her clients is having an emergency.
Do you feel you are still cut off from your feelings? Is therapy helping your access to them?
