> It definitely is something buried deep in my unconsious because I don't know which past relationship it's supposed to represent. Is it supposed to be a relationship that was lacking and the reason we fall for the therapist is because she gives us the caring we never had from a former spouse or parent?
I guess so. I'm not too sure about that. I feel such a longing for my therapist, yet I feel I have quite a close relationship with my mother so it doesn't really add up. My father's dead though, and my depression started when he became terminally ill, so maybe its more to do with him. Who knows? I feel like you - it is a bit of a mystery.
> I don't have sexual feeling about my therapist who is a woman like me. You are right the book "In Session" seemed to be mostly about that.
I have ordered it - I'm sure it's worth a read.
