Welcome to Babble, mommy2angel.
It's pretty bad-- for us-- that our Ts go away. They do need the time off, and to get some release from the intensity of the work.
But for us-- when we come to depend on seeing them, not only the relationship, but the help they give us with our struggles-- it really pulls the rug out from under our sense of their reliability and solid presence.
I tend to count the days-- and it seems like forever-- especially toward the middle and until the very end. But the days do count down-- even if time seems to stop dead.
If you feel like talking about anything that's on your mind-- there are almost always people here who can identify and say insightful things.
I know it doesn't seem like it now-- but in a few days (I hate it when people say this to me, even when it's true--but it is true), your T will be back.
