Last Session With My T

Status

Because everyone is different, your new T may bring a whole set of unexpected bonuses. New perspectives, new ways of looking at things. Some of that might be interesting and useful. While remembering and appreciating all that you got from your last T, be open to the possibilities with the new one too. They may have similarities, they may have differences. All of that can be good.

Your old T sounds like a hard act to follow! I don't envy the new one having to do that!
 
@scout86 im trying to remain optimistic about the new T. My T wouldn't have recommended her if she wasn't good. She knows how messed up I am and that I have trust issues. She also told me that the new T has the intuitiveness gift as well as I call it. They've worked at the same non profit for a while so I think she knows her pretty well.

She is going to be a hard act to follow. And it's gonna be hard feeling like I'm starting all over again even though I know my T reviewed my history with her. Ugh I still call her "My T" :(.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You might always think of her that way and I don't think there's anything wrong with THAT either.

The relationship you had with her and what you both shared were real and they aren't going away just because you won't be working together now. Were you worried before you met this last T? (Seems like maybe you were?) I hope you click as well with the new one. Sounds like there's a good chance you will, even though they are 2 different people.
 
I am still struggling even though its almost been a month. I miss her something fierce. I've seen the new T once now and she's nice, but its not my T. I am struggling very badly right now with this time of year and new flashbacks. I feel like I have no one because I don't feel ready to just blurt all of this out to the new T. Plus I see her next week and then I won't see even her for a month.

It was just the worst possible timing...
 
I wish I had some words that would fix everything!

Missing people is hard. And it's the price we pay for letting special people in our lives, I guess. :(

Understandable! It takes time to develop a relationship like that. Meanwhile, you DO have us.....:wideeyed:
 
I feel you...I am missing my T more than ever before, even though it's been almost 7 months. My brother was in a car accident and there's so much in my life with the holidays and all--and I don't feel safe talking about all that with the new T. So I feel your pain.
