Re: some days I dont think I'll ever be normal --- thank you!

, you sound so positive I am so happy for you that you found this new

therapist. I know leaving the old one will be hard, but the new one sounds

like she'll fulfill your needs better

Thanks to everyone who replied to me yesterday. Today was a much better day.

I saw my new therapist today and she has some good ideas for me and feels

really supportive. I was having a rough time dealing with the fact that I'm

not going to see anymore (probably) and dealing with all of the other

issues in my life. I haven't told her yet, just told her I wanted a break. I

want to see this person for a little while before making my final decision.

I get so attached to people.

But I did get to talk to my new therapist today about how overly attached I

am to . She said under my circumstances it was normal (having DID) and

she knew it would take time to trust her. She also told me she is a

long-term therapist and understands the needs of clients with DID, which

does not.

She feels very safe to me, which I like. And is safe too -- just

unavailable all the time...she is gone for 2-3 weeks every 6 weeks or so and

it just wasn't working for me. I just have to work this through and it will

take me some time, but I'll be all right once I get used to it.

Thanks for being such a supportive group!
