I've been seeing my psychiatrist for 10 years for therapy, but no, I don't think she's attached to me. I would find it really weird and...wrong...if she was. I think she genuinely wants to see me happy and succeeding, but I don't think she would miss me if I stopped seeing her. And I wouldn't want her to miss me. I like that we have a professional doctor-patient relationship and that there is some distance there. I wouldn't want us to get too close. It would make me feel very uncomfortable.
