    T Trying To Transfer Me... Panic Attack

    @Ayesha, we were talking about something that I am currently experiencing and she I think she felt like she was not getting it. So she asked if I would want to talk to someone else, I said I don't like talking to people. The she said it would help if I talked to someone who'd understand what I...

    T Trying To Transfer Me... Panic Attack

    I just had a phone session with my t, and it sounded like she was trying to transfer me to another t. I just stopped talking and hung up the phone. It feels like I am having a panic attack. I am in tears and shaking, I wish I had someone near but I am all on my own. She is busy calling but I...

    Childish Tantrums

    I don't think I am aggressive, I just stop talking to her and after the session I will either send her an angry email or text. She tries to encourage me to take out my anger but when I am angry I just go mute. Or I just tell her how much I hate her or how much she hates me. I think being...

    Childish Tantrums

    Do you ever find yourself throwing tantrums in therapy? I get to be so childish around my t, throwing tantrums, sulking and etc. Does this happen to anyone else and how do you deal with it? I find it embarrassing :(

    Ptsd & Church

    I have not been able to tell anyone at church or in my life. If anything when I am in public I try too hard to act normal and healthy. I am not sure if I will ever open up to anyone about this. I think you are brave for even thinking of telling people in your church. I think if you are...

    Back Online

    It made me smile that you thought of me :). Yes, I will stick to phone session. I am not comfortable changing a therapist. It takes me a long time to trust someone. She is encouraging me to get a therapist in my area but I am not ready

    Back Online

    I have been away for about 3months, relocating was not easy. I am still struggling and some days I wish I could go back, but I have signed a binding contract with my current employer. I am still in therapy, having phone sessions with my therapist every week excluding this week because I was...

    Attachment Issues

    I have been reading your posts, but things were not easy so I didn't want to respond while in a bad state emotionally. I have emailed my t about this but I will not send her the link to this thread, that would mean she will have access to all my posts :nailbiting:. So I am waiting for her to...

    Attachment Issues

    I am really attached to my therapist and I don't know how to let go. I talk to her daily, I think about her everyday. How should I deal with this? How do I get over her? I haven't seen her in 3 weeks and I miss her so bad. How did I get myself into this? I don't think it is healthy

    2013's Challenges... Share Your Story

    Reading about what each of you went through this year has made me realize that maybe my year wasn't all that bad. I lost my sister this year, I lost all the money I had in my savings and the bank is still investing. I confronted my abuser but I look at this one as an achievement even though I...

    I'm So Not Ok Right Now

    @Abstract, I think I have started to look for reasons to hate her. I have sent her hateful emails hoping she'd give me a valid excuse to hate her but she replied with such kind words that it has left me even more frustrated :( I hate being attached to people because I don't know how to deal...

    I'm So Not Ok Right Now

    @scout86 you are sounding so much like my t, for a second I thought you might be her. I called her a few minutes ago and she said exactly what you wrote here. @macca thank you, you have helped me stop the tears. I convinced the little girl that it is ok and that I will still be able to talk to...

    I'm So Not Ok Right Now

    I am falling apart because I have said my goodbyes to my t today. Even though she told me it is not forever and that she will see me again and she will be in touch. I think I am having a panic attack. She gave me a book she singed with a note inside and asked me for a hug. It made me feel...

    I Am So Scared!

    I know the first time I disclosed to my t I went into panic mode. I started researching her and never wanted to go back to therapy. She had to work hard at convincing me to come back and I am glad I told her everything. It has made me feel better. I agree with mytai and nursenurse, discuss...

    Tomorrow Is My Last Session With T

    Just had my last session. It was too emotional. I gave her the card. She gave me a book. And she said she was happy to do phone sessions and that she will call me when she's that side so we can have a face to face session. I always have strange hairstyles so she asked me to send her a pic of...

    Tomorrow Is My Last Session With T

    @Abstract I have huge abandonment issues. I think feeling abandoned is my biggest problem. @scout86, thank you. It makes me feel better to know that I will have all of you to talk to when things are hard

    Tomorrow Is My Last Session With T

    @WillyKat I know this sounds ridiculous but my biggest fear is her referring me to someone else. I feel that will be permanently terminating the relationship. I think it will be better if she gave my sessions over the telephone. I do not know anyone where I am going and I think it will be...

    Tomorrow Is My Last Session With T

    I have accepted the job in another province and I am off to starting a new life with new people. I am happy but I am also sad that I will be seeing my t for the last time tomorrow. I got her a thank you card and I wrote a few words of appreciation. I am not sure how the session will go...

    Previous Therapy Experience Hindering Progress

    @Abstract, I think that is the problem right there how do I classify it as abuse when I willingly got onto the relationship with her? She didn't force me, I made a decision as an adult to be with her. Maybe I am missing the point. My current t believes it to be abuse as well, but I understand...

    Feeling Alone

    The relationship with my ex t was about 6yrs ago and yes I am not the righteous one because I have been with my boyfriend for 9 years and he still doesn't know about what happened with my ex t (let he who is without sin cast the first stone) My partner has worked in a different country for a...

    Over Analyzing T's Question

    @Lucycat, I am not looking for a reason to end therapy. I enjoy the discussions with my t and there's a lot I am learning from her. I will still see her. I wouldn't get into a relationship with another t, even though my ex t has hurt me so bad a part of me still wants her in my life. I know...

    Feeling Alone

    I got the job I had applied for in a different province. They called me back today to make an offer and it was a good one. I was happy about this until I told my partner and his reaction is really stressing me. He said if I took the job then it will be the end of us and I will never see him...
