That might be a reasonable option Stopdog. Maybe i could take a break from it, do somatic stuff, and come back. I think the every other week option would be more difficult.
I'm trying medications too, but so far, no luck. I could always go back to the ADD meds, but really don't want to be on them. I might have too if this doesn't dissipate.
I sent him an email about working on my depression in therapy rather than relational stuff, so we'll talk about it this week. Last time I brought this up he said we could do more supportive therapy. In his view, that is talking about the here and now rather than the past. My view of more supportive therapy is quite different.

Or do therapy one week and touch the next - so every other week rather than weekly? I think there are various paths to help one get where they want to go - just need some exploring.
