Rants and ramblings mostly about my long and sordid relationship with therapy. With an occasional reference to my crazy 'real' life.

It's All Crap
Apparently in a bad place, but is it a real place? Had a decent session and now I find myself spiraling out of control, sort of. There's like two weird parts of me. One that is freakishly calm and distant, and the other just wanting to lash out. I sent a couple of crazy texts and although a 'normal' person would consider her responses thoughtful and helpful, I on the other hand just want to push her further away. Don't know where the anger is coming from right now.

Thanks SS. I sent her kind of curt/crappy reponse to her text. Told her 'Enough with talking and texting, seriously'
ReplyDeleteI don't think she'll interpret that as me quiting, but I wish I had the strength too.
I can relate to your "pushing" and "pulling" from your therapist. Can you imagine what you would feel if one day L said to you that therapy is over and you will stop seeing her in 6 months?
ReplyDeleteThat's what happened to me. I am still shattered.
Hi Polar Bear, I actually do get where you're coming from. My therapist, who I had seen for 3 years when I was about 20, and 5 years when I was about 35 dumped me as well. It was so excrutiatingly painful, I never, ever thought I'd feel better.
ReplyDeleteThe road was long, and hard. I went through 4 therapists, including being termed by another t who got pregnant, promised she'd be back, and then dumped me via certified letter!
I've been lucky to work with L, she's been exactly what I needed and I actually do feel better. Of course I'm still crazy, but 'normal was not my goal' anyway!
I've followed some of your posts and my heart goes out to you, I wish I could help. Please, please don't give up.
