What are the group of people that arent those people named? What if you meet one criteria but not any others? Are you then those people not otherwise specified? Thanks for humoring me, sorry for the hijack.

I don't know if you saw my post, but my Ts go over with me, usually, 5-10 minutes to make the ending be at a good stopping point so it's comfortable for both of us, and natural. It's when we are "done." And then I walk out like I would if we had stopped right on the dot of when my session was supposed to be over.
Since the T ends the session, I see no issue with this, esp. since my anxiety is very high and I need closure (even temporary), and abrupt endings make me anxious. I don't know what group someone wants to put me in, but I feel as though both T and I have our boundaries in place. I leave when we are done, period.
