I started a thread a little while ago but didn't respond to the replies - it's a bit late to go back and do so now, so I'd like to apologise and thank those who gave advice/support. In that moment, what was written was invaluable. The support I received over this issue has been of such help to me - I can't thank you enough.
The rupture between T and I has eased the last week and a half and I feel I have made important progress. I feel it's behind us - it didn't resolve in the way I thought was necessary but now I see that there can be other ways to work through a problem without all being lost. Maybe we will return to it at a later stage, maybe there will be a time to look more at the 'real' issues behind it - but the feeling of 'being in jeopardy' is gone - and that's a relief! Once more it feels like he is my ally, so we will go on.
I started a course last week - it is to prepare for a set of exams in the Dutch language - I need to pass these in order to study (in Dutch) at university - I would like to go back to my studies next academic year but as I now live in the Netherlands, of course it will be in Dutch. I've been feeling exhausted with the traveling and early starts but am adjusting better than I'd expected.
I posted to another thread (or maybe two other threads) but in retrospect have the feeling what I wrote was a bit off the mark - potentially insulting at worst, unhelpful at best - in case my words have offended anyone the last few weeks, I want to apologise - maybe I'm worrying needlessly but I just haven't been all that together - maybe a bit wreckless. Anyway, I seem to be getting back to my feet again.
Ok, this was a ramble - sorry if it makes no sense to anyone!!

Witti,
I don't think you need to apologize at all. I am glad you and T are back on T.
I went in to talk to an advisor about going back to school. I must admit I am scared to death about it. He was very nice and so encouraging. More later on that experience.
Anyway, you sound so much better, what a relief.
take care.
Not a ramble at all,
rsk

I find that to be one of the most helpful things in therapy. I'm glad your therapy is getting back on track.
I haven't found your replies to be unhelpful, insulting, or anywhere in between. Good luck to you on your exams!
