The notice period for not attending sessions changed from a couple of days to having to say in session the previous week if I couldn't attend and also a commitment to give a longer notice period if I wanted to quit.
In defence of my T, I had become a pain in the backside because of my trying to run and be on my own to process stuff (it happened a lot!) and my T had been patient. It wasn't a case of just saying I wanted a break to think things over, but it was about not wanting to face things and feeling overwhelmed. But I acknowledged that I either engaged fully and talked about these things with T or stopped going.

Wow! I only have to give 24 hours notice. I'm sure your T tailored these rules for you because T cared about you enough to try to urge you to keep with it. I don't see it as a negative thing at all! I guess I never considered the "giving notice" to quit part....hmmmm....do people do that? I'm still on the fence as far as staying or going, but I don't know that I'd want to participate in termination sessions...I'd just want to "be done." Hmmm.... although I did promise her quite awhile back that if I was thinking seriously about quitting I would discuss it with her first. Hope I can keep that promise, but kinda doubt it based on things that occurred since that promise.
