If I'd have known how intense this would become, I seriously don't think I would have continued working with you. Sometimes I wonder if I left you, started over with a new therapist and was much more diligent about not getting so close to them, if I would have an easier time. I fear this would happen no matter who I see, though.

I wish I could be like the people who go to therapy, do the work, but don't care all that much about their therapists and manage to not make it be about that relationship.
