I'm glad it went well and she showed how much she cared about you jammerlich. Do you think you'll be able to approach the subject of the AD's, or is that something you don't want to deal with? It took a lot of guts to go back - glad you did.
Tears can make you feel so vulnerable and exposed sometimes, can't they? It does feel good when you can shed a few - esp. if you can do it without getting all embarrassingly snotty in the process! ; )
Does she know about your transference? If so, has she talked about it with you? Is it something you feel safe enough to talk about?
Transference is hard...it feels so good and so bad at the same time. With my T...I want to have the relationship, but I'm afraid I care too much he'll be gone. I want to see him every week, but sometimes I wish I'd never started because it's hard to go w/o seeing him, and harder when he cancels. I wish I'd had a father like him, I wonder how it would've been to have him for a father - probably nothing like how he is in therapy because with families real life gets in the way.I'm glad she made you feel special, I hope soon you feel safe.
