hahhah i saw that too and laughed at it. sadly it applies.
about the last post. i think i read it. i would be weirded out by it too, i think that's totally normal. we tend to only think of our therapists as that, "our" therapists. it's weird and uncomfortable to hear they have "normal" lives too. my t was talking about how she ate "too much" pizza the other day...totally made me weirded out. plus not really something i would expect to be said by an ed therapist.
anyways, i wouldn't stress about it. i think your feelings are totally natural and maybe you guys can talk about it next time if that wouldn't be too weird for you.
I read your post that you erased - honey you are not a weirdo! The strangest things trigger me sometimes and you know what? When my co-workers were training for the marathon here it made me feel like shit. Like a big piece of lazy shit. They were running every night, dedicated, etc. I was triggered. Don't feel stupid - your feelings are valid, completely valid.
I love you and am so sorry you are struggling right now - please hang in there and don't ever think that what you write is ridiculous.
I think I would be triggered by that, too. It is awkward when you know that your t actually has a life. My t at home never shares anything, which is nice but kind of weird. Every t is different. I doubt she even realized anything. If you tell her, I bet she would want to talk to you about it and would tell you that she didn't even think about it. Sorry that it upset you.
Take care. I'm so glad that we're FB friends now. :)
i swore i comeented on your last post, but maybe i was getting ready to comment and something interrupted me and i had to get off the computer, which sommetimes happens. Anyway, i would have said pretty much what everyone else has said; that you are not weird or psycho or anything. I would have been bugged, too! I'm in favor of ED therapists keeping their personal food and fitness lives to themselves, especially if they are on the edge of extreme, such as marathoning, bodybuilding, or subsisting on bottles of Naked juice :)
I didn't read the last post (I'm very behind on blog reading), but I agree with Kristin that if you what your therapist said/did triggered you in some way, then to discuss it with her. I've had moments like that, and I've always kind of brought it up nonchalantly.

Hey hun,
I saw the last post and did have things going through my head and a few things happening here that kinda made me struggle to write what I wanted.
I have an email in waiting for you, when I finish it I'll add my thoughts then (so they're translated into some form of useful english).
*hugs*
xoxo
PS. DEFINITELY not a psychopath!
I know what you mean. I always think of my therapists as not having a life outside of our appointments.
This comic made my day, seriously. Number of therapists I have had: over 20. Number of boyfriends I have had: one.

That picture totally fits me too! SIGH
People are always freakishly quiet over the weekend. I get paranoid too!
I didn't go on any blogs while I was in SLC.
You're not a psychopath my dear friend. Not at all.
And that picture applies to me as well!
You didn't remember what I told you to do to avoid the underlined text, huh? ;)
I tried, JB, I tried!!!
