And it will get easier as time goes on. Yesterday was the year anniversary for me of my last session with my former T. And I thought about her a lot. And thought about writing her a letter, to let her know that I'm still doing okay. But I didn't. I might do it at some point, though.
Tonight, during the time that you used to have therapy, can you do something to honor the relationship you had with your T? Perhaps journal about the things you learned, or do something that reminds you of your T. Anyway, be kind to yourself.
As for the visit with your mom - set your boundaries. You are an adult - you don't have to put up with anything that makes you feel put down or bad about yourself. I know you might not be able to separate yourself physically very easily, but at least separate yourself mentally and emotionally if things get too hard. I have to do this with my parents and grandmother all the time!
