Thanks Emilyp!
I really appreciate your honest thoughts. I'm still struggling with what my emotions tell me I want (to see both) and what my mental self says is best (move forward with current T).
My emotions are still stuck in a childlike state and I get upset really quickly when I am being denied something dear to me. I have the same struggles with food and dieting.
I do agree that I spend a great deal of time thinking about my therapy and my T and it's not always in the best self-improving ways. I'm off work right now so I have a lot of time on my hands til I go back, so I spend it thinking about my T and what to talk about when I see her next, and what we already talked about, so on and so on.
I feel like I need to start transitioning back to a place where I can go to work and take care of myself and my home but I'm stuck right now.
You said "...as one deals with transference, longer term those feelings should subside." I worry how long is long-term? What can I do to stop thinking about my therapy and my T ALL the time?
Thanks for your support!
