In reply to abandoned by therapist... or so it feels, posted by Mme All Talk on July 8, 2006, at 13:52:12
>Breaks are hard. I always have trouble when my therapist goes on vacation which will be soon. I try to write more and have something that reminds me of him. IT sounds like you have a strong attachement with your therapist. I am sure your relationshio is strong and she/he won't abandon you. I have trouble witht that fear as well. Write often here. ALot of people are in the same boat during the summer. Take care of yourself.
RachelI'm new, but i hope someone would be willing to help me, or understood what is going on with me. My t went away for July, breaking my heart and genuinely destroying my mood. Yes, i have seen her for 15 years and i know each year she takes a break, and each year i go nuts, but this feels more intense, its worse not better. I feel abandoned by her, neglected in a sense. I feel such sadness and like a ripping out of my insides. I feel hurt and alone and rejected and unloved and uncared for and unwanted. I dont mean to sound like i am 3, i'm 29, but i feel like she doesnt like me anymore.This break has really defeated me, and i have another 23 days left, so its far from over. I'm just at my wits end, not knowing what to do. I do have two close friends who would listen to anything i said, and other friends too who care about me, i do have supports, and theres also my psychiatrist who has arranged for me to see her weekly during this time, but still, it doesnt feel like its enough. and truth be told, until i see my therapist again, i dont think anything will be enough for me. Anyhow, I wondered if anyone had any feedback for me, i'm pretty desperate for help.
