I do not usually watch the clock, but I don't usually look at T either. I often gaze out the window. The clock does distract me, however, because the ticking of the second hand is quite loud. I do start watching it close to the end, so I an initiate myself, leaving on time. There was a time she accused me of not wanting to leave on time, violating her time boundaries, but it was not the case at all. I was dissociating a lot in session, and I knew I had to be in a "good place" prior to leaving. she was not good at helping me get there...so sometimes I'd just kinda sit, zoned out. So....watching the clock at the end helped me "come back" and stay focused on something else, and I was able to prove to her that I had NO problem leaving after 50 minutes if I was ok to do so. So yes, I will watch the clock at the end, and leave EXACTLY the minute I'm supposed to. It drives her nuts.

So, the ticking of the clock is loud, and it's annoying, but I don't watch it until I feel we're getting closer to the end of session, usually.
