I don't envision that I'll ever be completely without therapy. My mental illness is biological and I've dealt with it since a child. What I do see and what I have seen is the nature of it changing. For me, my goal is to get therapy to a place where it's like if I had a chronic physical condition, I'd be checking in with a professional to help manage it. I have treatment that works (ketamine) but it's still new and I'm still new at it and so my therapist provides support in helping me navigate all of that.

Eventually I envision seeing him or some therapist once every couple of months to touch base.
