Senior year of high school is a big deal...so many endings, and so many beginnings to look forward to.
I wonder why you feel like you "should" quit therapy? Do you think you're trying to circumvent the pain that will come when the ending that is out of your control (going away to college) comes at the end of the school year? I know that there were times in my therapy when I had an urge to quit to give myself a sense of control.
I've taken therapy breaks before, and they helped me see that I wasn't really ready to be done, and I went back. If you're really undecided, is a break a possibility?
I just finished my therapy, and I honestly just *knew* it was time. I'd always heard people say that you know when it's time, but I couldn't imagine what that would feel like, until it happened.
It sounds like you and your therapist have a great connection - that's a wonderful thing. Have you talked to her about how you're feeling about continuing/not continuing??



to you!
