Daisy, I could have written this post. I am going through exactly the same thing, and am eating copious amounts of white chocolate - definitely needing mother's milk and nurturing. I have increased my number of sessions to three times a week, and although I hate feeling so dependent, realise that I am just not coping without it. But then I battle to stay connected when I'm there.
The abuse from my husband has made everything worse. I feel so weak and needy. I actually can't understand my T's position on this - she says it is good for me to be in touch with my childish, weak, needy side, and that the abuse has brought this on. I think that sounds crazy - there can't be anything good that comes out of violence. She says I need to be able to integrate the strong, capable side of me with the weak needy side, and that the more I am in touch with the child, the easier this will be.
I'm sorry, I am not sure that the last bit has anything to do with you. Just my own little rant.
Take care Daisy. I'm with you all the way.
