I e-mailed my T a while ago to say I wanted a break - my T e-mailed back and said it was inappropriate to just stop going without discussion. I therefore kept my session and looking back I am glad I went back - I am still seeing T and feel much more settled and positive.

We spoke about it again later and T said that in the same way that T wouldn't just e-mail me and tell me not to come anymore, I need to be respectful of the same as T is human too. I sort of see T's point.

I have also contacted another T in the past as I was unsure about my T - That T encouraged me to go back and talk to my T - I didn't talk to my T about it (it still remains a dark secret of mine), but again I am glad that I stuck with it.

I was having a tough time a couple of weeks ago and T suggested we have a review session. T said they wanted to keep working with me, but it was fine if I wanted a break. Think T is clever as when I was given a free choice of carrying on or stopping, I of course wanted to carry on. Hmmm.

There is a site somewhere on the net that talks about quitting therapy and suggests making sure you are quitting for the right reasons and it is not just about running away.

Good luck in your decision.
