<<Being upset that your needs weren't met doesn't need to have anything to do with any compassion or good feelings you have for him.
>>I'm not good at identifying my needs. I'm worse at getting them met without guilt. I'd rather deny the need and be disgusted with myself for bothering someone.
And yet, way down deep inside I am still waiting for someone to take care of me and make it all OK. I worry that my Therapist will run from this really HUGE need, though he tells me he won't.
I'm trying to learn how to take better care of myself so I don't *need* him to. So far what I've learned is: I hate baths. I hate nature walks. I hate massage. I like shopping and cream of wheat. :)
