I have sent NUMEROUS cards to my therapist. Many of them being thank you cards, but I've also sent him a Congrats card after he finished his big test. Which test I'm not sure, as I'm not exactly knowledgable in such areas, but it was a big deal. He never comments on them. NEVER! I've brought it up once saying that maybe, just maybe I send them to test my limits (which isn't rue and he knows it) and he always says that it isn't true and if it were then he would request that I stop sending them. He said it isn't as if I send them every week or two weeks or anything like that. He also said that it isn't as if I attach a 30 page note to the card, so the card is jsut a gesture of gratitude and he appreciates them, which I know because he places them in his office. OMG, if he's reading this I'm pointing myself out at this point. There's a huge arrow over my head saying "Look Dr. Spock, it's ME! Now check out all the nasty things I've said aobut you in the past." (I get so paranoid at times it hurts :(, well it doesn't hurt but you get the picture....
Anyway, look at it this way. If he brought the card up, then it would be because he was concerned. So, it is a good thing he didn't bring it up. Also, if you want to talk about the card, why don't you bring it up? Here's the agenda...
Miss Honey (and Karen if you really need me, but I assure you I smell so good he won't be paying much attention to you if I'm in the room)

2:30-2:50 Bean and Miss Honey decide to begin talking about transference and realize that the discussion isn't nearly as bad as it seems! Also Bean thanks Miss Honey for the lovely card.Hmmmmm.... Maybe Karen should start going to everyone's therapy sessions? It would be a chance to start getting her number out there at least, though I'm sure her boyfriend may wonder why so may therapists are calling her all of the sudden.....But Karen do likey those therapists....
