Thanks for your post...he didnt fully abandon me though...we are working though it...he emailed me and told me his reasoning for what he said in the previous session that made me THINK he was abandoning me... He told me he still cared about me and that he isnt going anywhere...so of course I accepted that.
What you said about how your parents teach you to be autonomous...mine never did. Honestly...I am a 29 year old going on 12..with an emotional maturity of a 2 to 4 year old....dont I sound fun?! So he is just trying to heal the "younger' me, and work on the autonomy of the older me.. and what I am finding out right from the start is that trying to heal the younger me...is extremely painful.
Anyway. I will survive. Hopefully.
Im so thankful that I can post on this site and get the thoughts and opinions of others...I dont have anyone in my life that I can talk to so this is huge.
