My therapist died
She died yesterday and I just got the call about it an hour ago. They told me she died suddenly and didn't know the cause yet. She wasn't elderly or anything, just middle aged. I always thought I would have to find a new therapist because she would retire, not die. I'm feeling very sorry for her family, she had two adopted teenagers. Now they're orphans twice over.
She had been my therapist for 7 years. From 15 years old to last week.
I sent my psychiatrist a message asking for in network referrals.
I really clicked with my therapist and she was a really important part of my life and growth.
She also inspired me to go to grad school, i want to be a therapist myself.
She liked horses and animals. I don't really believe in an afterlife but if I did I would hope she was doing something she'd enjoy somewhere not on earth. Maybe riding horses somewhere.
