I think you are not crazy, you are normal. Love feels so good, who wouldn't want to wrapped up in a blanket of good feelings our T's bring to us all the time?
But it can make you stop and think, that maybe what it is telling you is that you NEED to have this in your life, love from someone who can love you fully without all the boundries of therapy. We can't talk to our T 's anytime we want, but needing love all the time isn't abnormal. It is real! Everyone needs love. Knowing you need love is a good step in getting what you need and want.
You are so brave to talk to your T about this, I am sure he will help you work through it, and let love come into your life. Love that can make you feel safe all the time, not just 50 minutes at a time. Even though the 50 minutes can feel soooo good especailly if you don't have love in your personal life. I think you are in love. Most people who fall in love, think about the other person all the time. It is normal. It is wonderful. But it can hurt trying to love someone who can't return it back to you in the way you want. That is what is hard about therapy. I think a lot of people feel the same way as you. You are not crazy.
