I guess I look at it as a step to getting better too. I tend to project my feelings towards my ex-shrink to my present one, they are actually quite similar, attractive older men. I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my ex-shrink now and I get angry at my present one, then feel guilty about it and get depressed. He's the one who pointed it out and we'll work through it. then we'll figure out why I repeat the pattern, and I know it has to do with my father. I think just looking at it logically strips the power away, and I don't feel that dependency any more. I realize my husband is in the real world, not the one hour therapy room, and he is the person who should receive my love. anyway, I think that's how it's supposed to work:-). take care, judy
