T1 is away and I didn't feel things were progressing and I was just constantly finding it so hard in the sessions.

So as I had the extra free time I went to see another T today. We had a 2 hour session and I was blown away at how different it felt.

I got reprimanded by T2 for seeing T2 without finishing it appropriately with T1 first - but actually although I felt guilty for putting T2 in an awkward position (T's words), I still don't believe my actions were inappropriate - surely it is reasonable to check other people out before making a decision re:termination?

Anyway I feel very inspired now - this T is more experienced (and more expensive) but I feel this T really understood the difficulties I have been having with T1 and T2 has a more flexible approach to therapy, not subscribing to any one approach.

However T2 will only see me on condition I have a proper ending with T1 So I have to go to T1 next week and explain.

What happens when you tell T you want to quit? Do you have to go to more than one session? I am not looking forward to it at all
