Hi crushedout
nice to meet you, by the way.
I'm sorry to hear that you're hurting right now. I really identify with what you're saying about having your T involuntarily commit you. I also have the fantasy about letting someone else show me their caring and their love by taking care of me. It's a very primal thing. Wanting to feel like an infant. Powerless, at the mercy of a loving, caring adults.
Your T does care about you. But she cares about you as an adult. She is talking and trying to work through this difficult situation with you. Let her help you find your own strength to help yourself. Let her do some of the heavy lifting, in terms of thinking clearly about the pros and cons of different options for your recovery, and also the consequences of your recovery. I'm so glad that you're talking with us about this. It sounds like a heavy burden.
Stay safe- I'll be thinking of you,
-ll
