I drive myself to and from my appointments. Sometimes, I have to sit in my car for a while until I am calm and in control enough to drive safely. But my t is usually pretty good at making sure I'm okay enough to leave. And if I'm not, she gets me to a place where I am okay.

On some occasions, one in particular, where I was still crying really hard at the end of the session but she had another client to see and had already delayed them by 10 minutes because she needed to stay with me, she offered to have another t come in and sit with me until I was okay. But I didn't want to, I don't want to talk to anyone else or have anyone else see me cry except my t. So she checked the bathroom was empty, and then took me there herself so that I could have some time alone to calm down. So normally, if I'm not okay, she makes sure I'm somewhere where I can gather myself together. And once I calm down (sometimes I sit in the bathroom for an hour), I'm fine to drive home.

As far as I'm aware, a good t should be able to wrap things up at the end of the session so that you feel okay and relatively safe. Obviously, this may not be possible every single time, but in my experience, a good t can manage that most of the time.
