Why didn't you do an ending? I think I dread it because of feelings it may bring up and worried I will feel like she's in control. I feel like if I leave on my own, it's not termination or abandonment. It's just me making a decision that it isn't a good fit. I feel like that's a lot healthier. The last thing I said to her was to give me a second chance. I hate that I even said it - I don't act that way outside of therapy. It's like I had lost myself.
I'm worried I'm calm because it really hasn't happened. I guess only time will tell.
