Yep. See my post to annierose about all the changes in the d*mn furniture.


> But there's the whole point of exploring the therapeutic relationship as an aid to healing. It's the emotional self that's usually constrained that is being reached.

I guess that's why it seems almost every session is about what I feel about him and what is good or upsetting me about our relationship. It seems so odd. I sure hope it all makes sense to him.


> Therapeutic absences hurt don't they?

Yes, they do. Even a couple of weeks ago, when we were both there but not connecting. That felt pretty lousy.

(((Dinah))) I can only imagine what you're going through.


> I wish my therapist were more like yours. And Daisy's. And Annierose's. :)

I wish he was, too. But then again, if he was, he wouldn't be who he is and there is some reason you connected with him specifically. Hopefully, he'll show you that side again, soon.
