and so i did something i have never done...
i googled her
and bloody hell she has written books on historical methodology
incl the role of narrative
till switching to psych
at which point...
she vanishes
:-(i would really like to contact her...
its been a while
i've gotten heaps better since then
i'd love to be able to tell her that i finished my degree
and got another
and am working on another...
about how i hurt my legs and that was really hard
but i'm okay now
about how she was the best therapist i ever had and i miss her so very much
about how i did talk about the voices...
and about my new dxi know where(ish) her husband works...
it is tempting...
oh so temptingshe tried to discourage me from writing before though.
well...
its tricky.
in our last session i asked her if it would be okay
and she seemed really pleased
really genuinely pleased
she jumped up to get a pen
and said that she couldn't exactly remember her new address...
i freaked a bit at that point
and said that her new work address would be fine.but then...
her new job was at another place
but still part of the region that i'm in
and so she wrote me...
and said that she didn't know this before...
but that because she was still working within the service
she had to foward any contact she received from me on to my present clinician
and it would go on my file.and she also said...
that what she was thinking when she said i could write...
was that goodbyes can be hard
and that it might be helpful to me to write to her for up to a year
to make that easier
and that she wouldn't foward on what i'd sent thus far (which was innocuous)
because she thought it fair to warn me firstand of course...
i thought that was just a tactful way of her telling me to f*ck off.
and so i never wrote back.oh
actually...
a couple of years ago i did try
but she had moved on again
out of the countrybut it turns out...
that her husband used to be the secretary of the philosophy dept.
and my supervisor told me where he moved to...
where they moved to...
he used to go stay with them sometimes(no way! what a f*cking small world!!!)
and of course i wouldn't send anything to her via him...
but i could be tempted to try and find his email...
and ask him for her address...
are these thoughts really very bad??
or do ya think it would be okay?
