Poet,
I am so glad you called and reached her! I'm sure she was too.
And, though I would like to take credit for being insightful, please reread what you wrote:
>The usual beating myself up for feeling like a failure, etc. Then it hit me, what I was crying about. I realized that the little girl inside of me, who my therapist says feels abandoned, was abandoned by me. I don't like her because I don't like what she became. <
You, yourself, identified that you don't like "her" (blame)...I didn't do that. This is your courage, your strength showing itself. I wish it wasn't so painful and I don't have the answer for how to make it through quickly. Wishing isn't helping. Talking about it, writing here seems to.
Let me know how it goes tomorrow.
-D
