In a previous thread (JayMacs How often do you), I read twinleaf's account of her termination from a previous T. It fascinated me almost as much as if she'd had an afterlife experience! (You can see what my feelings about termination are.) Anyway, her account gave me much to hope for, and gave me a new way to look at things from someone who'd already been there.
In another previous thread (For Jay, Turtle, and FMD), I also summarized the stages my therapy moved through over 6 years from the perspective of the therapeutic relationship and how it has changed with time. The post was intended to give hope to others that the craziest, most painful feelings eventually pass but they do contribute to an attachment that offers a powerful route to healing..
I, for one, would love to read other people's narratives about the stages the therapy has passed through, how their relationships with their Ts have changed with time etc. Particularly if you've been in therapy a long time, would you care to tell your story? And even if you haven't been in therapy as long as me and Dinah :) I'd personally love to hear all stories, especially about the client-T relationship, which we are all experiencing in its many variations. I find it so helpful to hear about how other people's experiences are similar and different to mine. It really helps me gain perspective.
Rather than reply to this thread, it might be best to start new threads so people can respond to you and also so your response doesn't get buried in this one. Just a suggestion.
Thanks, Lucie
