NO MORE PAIN…PLEASE


I feel like I am going to explode into millions of pieces.  My T is out of town on a trip until Sunday and I am feeling scared and alone.  Can it be that I have begun to connect with her without even realizing it?  This is what I cannot stand…to need someone, to depend on someone, to want to see them and talk to them ALL the time…or at least more often than I am able.  It becomes an obsession.  It is all I can think about, my mind will not shut up.  She said I could text her, but I just cannot let myself do it.  I need to respect her personal time.  I don’t want to intrude. 

Why does all this have to hurt so much?  Why do I continually feel tormented by the past?  The last time I saw T, she asked me if she could sit next to me.  I agreed.  It was safe.  I felt safe.  While I was with her, I believed she cared and truly understood the pain and the confusion.  But, it was short lived.  When we are apart, I cannot remember that feeling.  With my previous T, I could remember it.  I felt that he was with me even though we were miles apart.  I could remember his face and the sound of his voice.  That is not happening with my new T.  I cannot picture her face or remember the sound of her voice.  I guess that will take time.  But, what do I do in the mean time?  How do I keep surviving?  I feel the urge to drink, to cut, to take more pills than I should…I NEED TO BE NUMB.  I feel myself drifting away…I am not sure where I am…am I here??  I think the past is intruding once again and everything is getting blurred.

NOTHING...

  1. Sorry you feel so bad Interruption. Hopefully you will start remembering your T's presence in time. Why not text her if it would help you - she did give you permission.

  3. Thank you both for your support. It helps more than you can ever know. I sit here feeling so alone and disconnected from the world. I do not know what I would do without people like you! Take care.
