I think I did work it out. I feel a bit raw about it all at the moment, so it's hard to be positive. But I hope I have partly resolved the longing for a perfect mother - just through talking about it, and having a greater understanding of why I am like I am. I have learnt to value the relationship with my T and that my needs can be met without having an all-consuming impossible mother / child relationship. Hopefully I can take comfort from the emotional support that is already on offer from my friends and family, instead of searching for what I can never find. This is all good theory though, I guess in practice I'm still not sure if the problem will come back again. If its not working out though, I will go back. Thanks for your thoughts.
