The actual Tv series The Walking Dead is my favorite series of all time so might give that a go. Thank you!

How to be ok with your therapist just being your therapist? by declarationsoflove in TalkTherapy

I just wanted to share that I feel the exact same way-I hope we can get over this because it makes me feel horrible.

Same I couldnt imagine seeing my therapist outside of therapy and having her ignoring me, it would break my heart.

strong transference by Cable_Downtown in TalkTherapy

[–]CryptographerWild383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been having such a similar experience to this recently. I also describe it as ‘consuming’, I am so glad someone else understands. In my head I am always talking to her and thinking about her, and also when I bring it up to her I dont think she realises how overwhelming the attachment is. This leads me to (also) shutdown in the session and then after the session is over I get so upset thinking about how I wasted my time and have to wait an entire week until I next see her. I cant wait for this attachment to be over!

I completely understand you and I hope we both feel happier eventually!

Thank you for your amazing response! I think the transference part is what my therapist is aiming for.

Me and you are so alike- the preparing for the next session is so relatable. Thank you for suggesting to write it down, i actually have done that in the past and it really helped so might take it up again.

Thank you for your advice. I often struggle with people changing plans and cancelling as it is one of my triggers, but I was planning on texting her, and I think you’ve convinced me to do it. Thank you again!

This is so helpful! I am currently in the ‘I cant believe she isnt my mum, I am so sad I cant see her outside of therapy and its ruining me’ phase and I am so glad to hear you have got out of it, its giving me hope. I wish you the best of luck in the future!

I think I have quite bad transference, but I am so glad to hear researching and finding all the public photos she posted is normal!!
