I really struggle with feeling responsible for other people's emotions, including my therapist. I constantly analyze people to ensure I know how they are feeling so I can respond appropriately. This is an exhausting habit of mine and causes me to not be able to meet my own needs. It is especially unhealthy in therapy because I am so concerned with how my therapist is doing and how I make her feel. She has very healthy boundaries with me and has not played into this issue at all, I believe it really is a me problem. I think it causes me to hold back in session because I don't want to make her sad. For context, I'm definitely an "empath" type and was a parentified child of a single mom. Do you have any advice?
