> Silly Sunny! If he's got a great new comfy chair, he's planning to stick around even longer! He's not going away, not if he's getting more comfortable there. That's a sign of staying, not going.
>**** But it means he's taking stuff home and moving stuff around, and I hate moving and everything like it. He's going to have to change offices in the next year or two (I might not be there in two years, but I would be definitely next year) and even thinking about it scares me. I rely on him and his office being the same every week because so much else in my life changes so much so often. I've never experienced reliableness. We think my mom might have borderline personality disorder, since the descriptions make me think someone took her and wrote her down, and my dad has definitely got elements of OCD, and my brother is bipolar. So I come from so much instability that even little changes throw me. I hate moving rooms, and I've had to change rooms every six months or so for the past seven years. Change just bugs me. It was soooo nice that he immediately got why it would bother me, though, when I wasn't even sure why it bothered me.
> But I do know what you mean. My T's shoes are what throw me. I don't mean that I think she's leaving -- I trust that she's going to stick around for another ten years, as she has said, or even longer. But she sits in a recliner, and I sit on a sofa, and mostly spend my sessions looking at the soles of her shoes. And when she wears different shoes, or gets a new pair -- it's very distracting! You'd think, considering her clientèle, that she'd know better than to make such changes when so many of us have OCD issues, on top of the rest!
>***** I would die if my T was in a recliner. I would be afraid he'd fall asleep! I'm already afraid of that in this new chair, that maybe it's too comfortable. Uggh... more to talk about.
> I hope you feel better soon. I'm sure your T will be there next time you go in -- after all, he wants his stone back.
***** I'm actually not sure he wants it back at all, but I'm pretending he does. :) But I know he'll be there - sort of.
Thanks,
