Wow, Dinah. She was so on the ball it's almost scary! It kind of makes me have really good feelings about her - cautiously optimistic, I guess. And it was really nice of her to be willing to start building a relationship with you. She seems to be very much in tune with what you need. Or maybe today was just a really "on" day for her. What do you think?

I'm not so sure that your T thinking this is a good idea is the equivalent of him admitting that he's going to terminate with you. I think it would only be an admission that so much is still up in the air for so very many people. It would just be a Plan B or insurance policy, of sorts. He'd virtually promised you forever therapy and then you both got a huge dose of the very ugly reality that so much is out of your control. I think his agreement would just mean that he wants to be sure you're well cared for in case the unexpected happens - whatever form it may take. IF you think you could like this woman, I think it sounds like a promising idea.

What did you think of her connecting in a new way idea? I'm not so sure how I feel about it. I think I see it as the equivalent of maintaining distance to prevent the pain. But I may have some really screwed up thinking there because I've been thinking the same things in mulling over whether or not to ask my old T if I can come back. Sometimes it feels very wreckless and dangerous, doesn't it?

Whether you believe it or not, you are very brave, Dinah.
