Reply to "The pain of longing"

Hi LL, Thanks for the reply, sorry I wasn't very clear in my post, I've been with my current T for 6yrs. What I mean about being back to the beginning is how I was during my first yr of analyst with her, accusing her of not doing enought etc, until I learn what a enought is. Actually as I wrote that last sentence I have a voice inside my head saying, thats your answer, you know she is giving you enought, but that very young part inside doesn't see it like that yet again. It feels reawakened and back to those first early feelings. My therapist says I have my volume set to high that I am not able to take in the quite caring. Right now I just dont understand how her listening and me talking and protesting about my pain is going to heal it. Its like I just want to be with her 24/7, merged, nothing less then that feels enought. I am afraid I won't have the ablity to take the time it takes to keep up this level of pain and just talk about it, it feels like I will attack her if I have to sit there as she "empathetically listens". I am afraid my anger will become uncontrollable.

sorry I dont know how to move this thread now its here.
