Huh? That's the exact reason to go to therapy.
Yes - I know. But it was very complicated. There were many reasons including the distance to drive to see him while I was in a severe, debilitating depression. I almost lost my job....I had a few phone sessions as every time I would try to set out to his office I would feel such fear and dread/panic I had to return home. My husband was very anti-T and that made it hard. Plus, my T started advising me about my marriage and my job and that was so unlike him as he was always about empowerment and not telling me what to do....anyway, what's done is done. I don't regret my decisions because I know for certain it was the very best that I could do at the time. Had my T's office been right around the corner I would've most likely continued. That was the biggest barrier. I started to get symptoms of agoraphobia.

As far as needing closure...I'm feeling that maybe our last phone conversation may have been closure enough for me...I don't see the point of one last session to say goodbye. Especially in light of how my progress went downhill at the end of T. I was hospitalized twice and put on meds. I had NEVER before been hospitalized or taken psych meds. Everything went downhill. I hope I won't regret it but the more I think about it, the more I think I might just email him a thank you and move on.
