I feel the same as you I think... at this point I'm just comfortable with it. My big crisis at this point in my life is that my husband just joined the military. Right now he is home and on inactive duty until they assign him a job title, but after he is shipped to boot camp and job training school, then he will be posted on a base. If it is one that is not in a warzone or in a remote location, I will be going with him. I'm terrified of leaving my psychiatrist. I want to stay here and be with my doc forever... But, I made a committment to my hubby and to the military career he chose. I feel so torn and so afraid. I told my doctor about it, but we have not discussed it much yet. I don't think either of us is looking forward to my leaving... I'm so sad about it already. I think my transference is a maternal sort of feeling too, even though my doc is a guy. He is just the most gentle, soothing, caring person I've ever met. It's like a soul connection... Anyways... In answer to your question... being proactive about my feelings does help a little. I like having the group a lot. It helps to have people to talk to on a deep level about these sort of things. If you would like to join, feel free to sign up. It's a really great bunch... many of us have the same sort of connections with our docs and therapists. I find that it keeps me going on the hard days when I am just too shaken up about moving to go on. Especially when I am unable to talk to my doc. Thanks for writing back... It's nice to meet you. Best regards, OL
