thanks folks, what you said has been really helpful.
i have been in therapy, and this problem has been discussed--though not as thouroughly as it should have been, i guess. there was a period in which i didn't go for a while, probably during one of the more obsessive periods.
about working with a male therapist--perhaps a good idea, though i've never become "attached" to a shrink before so i don't think gender is an issue. my current therapist--a woman, also a lesbian, who also lost her mother at a young age--is great and knows how to dea with me--i'm sarcastic and difficult in therapy situations, but she's actually gotten through to me. i'm in school out of state right now, but i will see her again in the summer.
as for EMDR... what is that? i'm new to the lingo...
thanks,
