Dear Forward In Reverse,

Having BPD, I am also very aware of being "abandoned" and thus the question about 'how would I prefer to be treated" as both the therapist or person IRL being left behind because of fear in others...as well as what you mentioned in terms of the effects on myself in leaving.

I hope you didn't hear any judgments, I was just simply trying to look at it from multiple perspectives, even that of my T. We have a partnership and we are emotionally invested in progress and the relationship. It has taken so long to gain a sense of comfort through trust and honesty.

It is just NOT a simple dilemma and emotions run high when so much fear is involved. It takes courage and heart no matter what happens. I really respect the thought process and desire to find the "right" course for healing.

Respectfully,

Wysteria Blue
