Aww I am glad you're hanging in there and getting by...I know from my experiences when my therapist is gone those are always when big things happen to me in my life too. This is probably not going to apply to you, but I was just going to warn you from my recent mistake in therapy...while my therapist was gone I told him before I was "not going to bother him at all" while he was out of office for a weekso no emails and no long journal entries etc. I stuck to this plan and I dealt with things on my own and tried to use all the coping techniques he taught me....and long story short-it made things worse slightly as when he got back it was hard for me to transition right back into telling him about things and this opened up more issues I have with attachment/abandonment issues (as if the therapeutic relationship isnt hard enough on its own) so when I made this goal and stuck with it, I didn't realize the outcome wouldn't make me feel better. One of the reasons I found was that he doesnt care really about things in my life as I so desperately hopedI think I was hoping hed come back and notice I didnt email him all week and actually I was just doing this for his acknowledgment and thats not really what hes there to do for me. It just made me really sad. Anyways, hope your week is going well!
