Are you ever afraid your therapists will die?

How can you ever be brave enough to let someone be that important to such vulnerable parts of yourself?

I'm terrifed he'll die and I'll be left alone and in a heap of pieces with no way to go back and then I'll get mine for ever trusting anyone.

So we talk about the weather I guess.

There's a Nancy Griffin song

If I promise not to cry
Will you look me in the eye
And tell me that you've known me?
I was your late your lonely child
I am enhanced by all you've shown me
....And will you sing this song again?
Let us sing it hand in hand
While the band is still playing
Before the light can loose your hand
Before I lose my voice again
Let us sing it while it's playing

I kept hearing that song and feeling quite moved by it. But I read the liner notes and it's about her mother dying of Alzheimer's. And yet isn't that what I wanted from a therapist to be known...for someone to hear my voice. But sometimes I wonder if he ever really heard me anyway then what a fool I've been and how could I ever try again or how could I even survive in a world where I could misjudge someone so gravely??

And what if you run out of money will they care then or will it all end as they show you out the door naked and defenseless?

and that's why i'm watching the weather channel before i go into see him.
