I'm glad he was there and warm and welcoming. :)
Finding a way to stay connected and have continuity is pretty hard. I think we developed habits of bracing ourselves everytime we returned home, whether we were gone an hour or a week. You just never knew what kind of response you would get to things. So it is pretty ingrained and part of who we are.
But the next experiences you are having with your therapist will likely go a long way to undoing this. It the meantime it is scary and painful.
I'm glad you are talking about it.
