1. Cost -my insurance covers both visits plus med eval by pdoc. Cost is copays.

2. Work schedule- I don't work

3. How long- old T twice a week for about 6 months. New T twice a week for a month so far.

4. Does it feel like enough, or will it never feel like enough?
Not really but I think anymore visits and I'd be an emotional wreck the whole week. I react strongly to T sessions, I usually cry during T and then I'm left with feeling emotionally raw and vulnerable and having to leave the Ts office and go back into the world. I don't like it.

5. Your general experiences of continuity
Both Ts said I should come in twice a week given my instability at the time but I don't know how much I get from it given that I am unstable and so unable to think rationally about what is discussed during the session.

6. How does it affect the rest of your life during the week?
I'm actually happier I don't go more often and even though I'm in a bad place right now I'd like to cut it back to once a week. I often think of "having" to go to therapy rather than "wanting" to go to therapy (hmmm perhaps good topic for next session!) Maybe Therapy is just not for me even though I've been doing it off and on for 15 years.
