Thank you, sd. I agree completely.
I also think there is a huge difference between running away from a conversation with a friend, and running away from a T session. Two differences, actually. First, a T is not a friend, and they are (or should be) equipped to handle lots of things that are unacceptable in normal social intercourse. Second, a T session is usually much more difficult than a conversation with a friend, so it's much easier to get completely overwhelmed.
As I mentioned, I have never left a session early but I have found that telling T when I get the urge to run off has been helpful, sometimes.
