Thanks for replying. She will be around, but unavailable for about 10 days, and then we can speak on the phone, but given her track record, it may be several weeks until she is back up to speed.
I would say that I planned it this way, to do this while she was unavailable, but I swear I didn't know about this until after we spoke at great length about it.
I don't have to do the actual termination yet, but I do have to start to let go, and to recapture some of the strength/power I placed in my pdoc's hands. That can't wait anymore. I'm not functioning well at all; it's interfering too much with my life and I want out. I let myself get in too deep, and it's time to get out!He can't/won't give me what I want or need, and I've come to accept that what I want/need is an acceptable need to have in therapy, and if he can't help me, I will find someone who can.
And before anyone asks. I have asked my T why we can't do this work together, her and I, and she says it's because this is an issue I need to work through with a man. A woman does not evoke the same types of feelings in me--and I've tried forever to work this through w/my T and other females.
