> Are you suggesting kind of a transference reaction, or just a way of realizing that it (whatever it is) doesn't have to be such a big deal?

Hmm. Maybe both? Thinking about why the issue is so important to you may involve thinking about when you have felt similarly upset by what you perceive to be similar situations in the past. And I suppose that by the past I am not really getting at last weeks upset, or even last years, so yeah transference reaction I guess. But then if you can kind of see that and see that the real issue (or what is really upsetting you) isn't even about Dr B, well then the issue kind of loses its significance. I suppose this would only work when people are overinvolved emotionally in the issue. And like I say, who knows if it will work every time???
