I want to ask for reassurance that we will return to in person work at some point, but it feels too soon to be able to tell.
I know that we both find working virtually frustrating. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |

Dear T: Not sure exactly what I'm going to talk about on Saturday. I have a vague idea but I'm not sure. Please don't let this be a waste of my time. HUG Kit

Thank you for once again helping me work through my insecurities and fears. Also for understanding why I sometimes get frustrated and help me understand your intents even when it either backfires or I misinterpret. One lesson from today is that I do project a lot onto others based upon my insecurities.
Just wish I didnt have to wait 2 weeks to bring it up and between appointments __________________ Last edited by nottrustin; Aug 06, 2020 at 05:46 PM.. |

Omgosh thank you for the texts and phone call/voicemail today. I feel very cared about. I'm sorry my phone was turned off and I didn't see them til a little bit ago otherwise I would have taken you up on a zoom session this afternoon. But I'll be okay until next Friday. I had a stressful couple of days but we got the financial paperwork done for the most part and now we're in a holding pattern for a couple of months so I can breathe again. I am still writing and I will likely have much to read to you by next time we talk. Lots of stuff is still coming up and I want to add to the Little Artie Meets Her Shadow story. I'm sorry if I made you worry by not responding to your texts earlier than I did. Your voice in the message you left was so caring it felt like a hug.

Dear T,
Part of me wonders why you couldn't have been like this a year ago. But maybe we had to go through that mess last summer for our relationship to be like this? Or maybe it's the pandemic? Or both? Whatever it is, I hope it doesn't change. Because I like this, even though I'm a bit afraid of it. But...I also need to face things that I'm afraid of, right? Love you, LT |

I am so grateful that you will answer my weird questions about masturbation like they are no big deal and even give me suggestions on what to use. You also will bring it up without me bringing it up first. I am glad you understand how much I need someone to talk to about stuff like this with what I am going through.

Dear T
Thanks for the phonecall. I guess we really needed to make sure we are clear about how we are going to proceed with having a different relationship in addition to what’s in the therapy room. I feel better about us coming up with guidelines so the roles don’t overlap. We have been basically doing a low stakes version of it for the past year anyway. I’m looking forward to spending time with you as fellow professional artists creating pieces together. |

Dear T,
Love you. That's all. And, OK, don't die or anything. Or move away. Or retire. Love, LT |

Yeah now I wish I had been able to take you up on talking yesterday afternoon. Why did I have to go and forget to turn my phone back on after it charged?!

So face coverings are pretty much mandatory for face to face therapy. I feel like this will delay you re-opening your practice properly even though we haven't discussed it. I get it, logically anyway. But I'm really beginning to despair...will I ever see you face to face again? It's been almost four months. Will the mask thing stop being mandatory once the numbers go down a bit? How can you make your office "covid secure?" What's going to happen? I just want the answers to all these questions, but I know there are no answers yet. I'm scared of what it means long term. I'm scared you'll change your mind and stop practising (highly unlikely, hello anxiety). I'm really scared I'll lose you and I don't know how to not be scared. I feel like it gets worse with each passing week. I don't know how to see the positives...I just long to be in your presence and I'm blinded by this longing right now. Zoom video quality is awful, your face is often blurry. The internet in your office isn't great, please, please, please, at least sort it out or go back home, where your internet is much better. I keep bursting into tears at random moments, I don't know why it's suddenly starting to affect me so much. I need some good news, I'm tired of all this angst. I really miss you.

Dear Dr. S,
Why can't I talk to you about things I want? I don't even feel like it's a fear of rejection. Something happens inside me the minute I start to turn the session to these types of topics. Walls go up and I don't feel ... I don't think connected is the word. I don't know, -me |

Feel like I'm unravelling, and desperately wish we had the option of in person at the moment.
Nonetheless, I am looking forward to the opportunity to discuss the last week or so with you. __________________ 'Somewhere up above the great divide Where the sky is wide, and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light 'You have all the grace you need for today, and today is all that matters.' - Steve Austin |
