Hi Lucy,
<< We're dealing emotionally with all the people who have hurt or left us in the past, and of course we expect this person to do the same. In our therapies we can learn that not everyone hurts and leaves and we can learn to live our lives without those past feelings hampering us so much. At least, that is what I am learning.
It's what I am learning, too. The last two sessions have been about my fear of abandonment which is from my childhood. I don't want my therapist to be my mommy, what I want and need is to feel that someone cares about me emotional warts and all.
I hope your trip is fantastic. Send cyberspace postcards if you can.
