LittleMouse - I'm glad you've realized you were putting a lot of the pressure on yourself rather than terminating being something you were being forced to do. I heard somewhere that a good time to begin to terminate is when you realize you don't have a lot you need to talk to your T about and are sort-of searching for topics. As long as you have things you want to cover and work on I don't think there is any reason you would need to terminate.

However, it may be a good idea try out an every-other week schedule. I know for me, I'd love to talk to T every week, and I do in times of crisis, but it can be stressful fitting in a session every week with my work schedule. Going everyother week also gives me confidence that I can handle some life events on my own and try to develop other means of coping rather than just dumping everything I'm feeling on T and soley reling on her to guide me.
