So since I am really struggling with my T and am trying to figure out if my issues are "normal" here are some questions that if you all could answer would be helpful. -- Thanks so much!
1) How long have you been with CURRENT T? Did you have a previous T?
2) Is your T male or female?
3) What is the orientation of your T? Did you know when you started with T?
4) Are you older, younger, or same age as T?
5) What type of transference have you experienced? Do you think it is limited by your T's age or gender?
6) Do you look at your T? How frequently? (I mean literally at their face when talking)
7) What is your greatest fear of your T?
8) Do you just let yourself "be" in T? Or are you composed and careful?
======
Now, I know since someone is going to ask about me:1) I have been with current T about 5-6 months
I had a previous T for 3.5 years. And a couple of T's when I was a kid (foster care).2) T is male. Which I can't believe I can even sit in the same room, but he is very non-scary.
3) I don't know. T is "psychodyamically" trained, but does object relations, EMDR, etc. Kind of eclectic. I had no idea what T did, I was referred.
4) I am late 20s; T is 40ish. I wish T was older.
5) Parental transference; although I am SOOO embarassed because T is not old enough to be my parent; sibling tranference; transference about abandonment and rejection; again completely embarrassed.
I think transference would be more intense if T was older, because I try and keep it hidden because he is not old enough to be my parent.6) I NEVER look at T (that I know of). He keeps saying "look at me LT" but I can't.
7)I think T is going is disappear (he doesn't know though)
