Thanks Poet. Laurie (old T) has sort of been around ever since the beginning, so it makes perfect (emotional) sense to me that she'd pop back up now. As a teenager, my parents put me in therapy and pulled me out quickly 5 or 6 times, all within a year. As soon as I turned 18, I found my own.. and my first try happened to be Laurie. I saw her for about a year until I left for college. I came back for a summer a few years later (2003 maybe?) and for one session a few other times (more "I just wanted to update you and say hi" sessions than real sessions though). Then this past summer I saw her for about 2 months again and she helped me get through some of the bad ending with Anne. In a way, I guess she feels like my mother and I'm trying to spread my wings with all these other therapists but shes always in the wings waiting if I need to run back to her. I know she cares about me on a real level. But she has very good boundaries too. I guess over the years we've developed this relationship where she can say something to me that I'd have been defensive about or resistant to with anyone else but somehow, she gets through. It's neat. Anyway.....

Off to see Ginny in a few minutes. Thanks for responding Poet, I appreciate it.

Hope you have a great day...
