Oh, I am so sorry to hear about you losing your T. That must be really hard, especially now when things are so tough for you. It is so important that you have some safety and consistency and grounding now. But now you’ll have the upheaval of finding a new T and getting to know them and trying to build up some trust again. I really feel for you llurpsie.
I’m not certain from your post, but it sounds like the move is a positive thing for you? I hope it is a healthy step forward for you. Remember to take really good care of you. Making a new safe place is really important. It should probably come before even unpacking the kitchen boxes and whatnot. Then if your unpacking becomes too much, at least you have your safe place to retreat too.
It is great that your T is giving you a really good referral, and yeah, I can understand it must be really scary. Plus it must be scary to know that your kind of therapy takes so long. I like to remember what someone else here said once (although for the life of me I can’t remember who (sorry mystery person)). But doing the long intense therapy can feel like you’ve spent enough to build a mansion. But the great thing is that really it’s like you’re building a mansion in your head. Everything ends up shiny and sparkly and wonderful and just exactly how you want it. And you get to keep it forever. I figure it is a great investment because it kinds of puts you at an advantage over everyone else (ie you see a lot more than they do and you know yourself a lot better than they know themselves) and it’s stuff you can use for the rest of your life.
And I’m great at reading cat talk. Your kitty said some very interesting things. Very cute.
Take care of you llurpsie.
