Hi, Dinah Seeks Support.
No need to respond.
Most of this is written out of ignorance, but with good intentions.
I can empathize with and relate to you to some degree, but not nearly as much as would be necessary for me to fully appreciate how disorienting this must be for you. I have never had psychodynamic or psychoanalytic therapies such that I should become attached to and enmeshed with the therapist. I guess what I am trying to say is that I really don't know how to make you feel better. I want to. Maybe you have to come to feel better on your own. I don't know.
I think that people here are giving you good advice and unconditional support. Is there anything that would soothe you except to reconnect with your therapist? I wonder if your therapist gave you the tools that would help you get through this situation. It would be a paradox of sorts. Would he be proud of you should you begin to use what he taught you? I don't know.
How very disorienting. The world must not seem real.
Try to manage your anxiety if you can. It will help prevent derealization.
