Thank you for this thread. You and I (and I hope you don't take offense at this) sound very very much alike. At least, I had the same issues. Did you know that in the end I made the decision not to see my darling therapist anymore? And I mean "darling" in the purest sense. (Oxford has a beautiful definition.)
I spent so many days feeling bereft and isolated. Finally I had to make a permanent break because I was so dysfunctional on a day-to-day basis. I believe there were times that the only things that held me together was his answering machine and getting high; I think without something that substituted for the intensity of my T's caring I would've drowned in tears. Aphrodite maybe you need to trust your therapist's caring.
Maybe it's something to do with never having had a sense of being cared for or listened to before?
