Your feelings and emotions are numb because you do feel abandoned and let down after flying high for a while. That's normal. You associate your success at that time with the bond you had with your therapist (also normal).

You'll probably feel like this for a while longer, however, you must start taking taking charge of your life and do for yourself what your therapist did for you - eventually you would have had to so so anyway.

We all go through growing pains, physical and emotional. I remember walking around for six months feeling numb during my second semester in university. I had taken a philosophy course that totally blew my mind and it took me quite a while to come to terms with it. I questioned everything about myself and life as I understood it up to that point. It was quite an eyeopening experience.

It might take some time and effort to work through this but have faith in yourself and don't get discouraged. You have the resources to figure it out.
