Hey muffled.
You’re just doing the best you can at the moment. It is very threatening when our T’s go away and extra protection is required. It’s okay if you need to retreat emotionally in order to cope. I know I always found it disappointing when I did this, but necessary. Just know inside that as you move forward in your healing, this will gradually improve.
But it’s perfectly okay to be wherever you are at now.
It would be good if you could still go to your last T appointment. There’s no point in extending the 6 weeks to 7 weeks. It probably wouldn’t be a real productive session, but it doesn’t have to be. Even just seeing her and being with her can help towards your healing. Every little bit of relationship building helps – even if you do feel cut off emotionally. It allows her to demonstrate her commitment and caring to you (which is a good thing, even if it is scary).
Don’t forget that if you’re struggling you can stick your hand up and we can go to camp comfort together (or your cave or mossy place or any other fantastic place you can dream up).
Also, if you’re interested, I read a really fantastic book recently called "Dragon Rider". It’s a kid’s book about a trip a dragon and some friends have to make. If you’d like a great place/adventure to day dream about, you could give this a read. I really loved it and it was a very easy, gentle read.
