> hey muff,
*hey crushed!

> so i told my T yesterday that you wanted to know what she thought of everything and that i didn't know. she seemed perplexed because really i did know.*Hmmm OK
>
> she just wonders aloud with me a lot, as she pointed out. she wondered aloud about the ethics of my ex-T (or any T) having a blog that can be easily found by her patients.*perhaps not the smartest cookie...
she wondered aloud what i was getting out of interacting with my ex-T, but also said she respected that i had some need to. and respected my decision to follow through on that need.
*WOW! Nice T, very accepting. Guess she's working on building relationship w/you which is nice.
i have told her that i'm seeking some kind of closure and she understands that need. we're both unsure of the best way to achieve that for me. but she says i'm the only one who really has ALL the facts, who can really decide for myself.
*Yes she IS smart :-)
Has she helped guide you somewhat thru this? My T doesn't DO alot either, but sometimes she helps me to work it out. Has your T been helpful in you working it out? Or has she just sorta essentially said, its up to you and just left it in your lap?, in which case, what use is she? It just seems so hard for you, I hope she is helpul in a concrete way somehow. I guess just having someone on your side is huge. My T sticking with me depite all my foolishness has been very amazing to me. But as usual, arrgggh, I proly SO missing the point.

> she's actually pretty smart, isn't she?**So yes, I think she IS smart. I think she working to build trust and support, and thats SO very important. Sometimes I forget that, and just want to get to the meat of stuff.
Best wishes crushed, and this has been interesting to me and I appreciate you following up on it.
Take good care,
Muffled
