So five minutes before session ended my therapist brings up therapy goals. she sounded like she was getting ready to terminate at least that's how I interpreted it. So I went into what I was hoping to get out of therapy which I had communicated a year and a half ago so it should not be a big surprise. My goals really aren't that complicated or extreme. Mood stabilization which I accomplished, feeling comfortable getting involved in a relationship which I have not had since age 23. Direction in life. I was seriously suicidal up to 6 months ago. Suddenly realizing you need to make sense of your life is so overwhelming. They say people don't really want to die they just want the pain to end. I can honestly say I wanted to die but I was too afraid of screwing it up and being in agonizing pain. The funny thing is she said her goals for me are similar. So why make me feel like you're abandoning me. Wtf. She could have worded it better.

It's kind of funny normal people go to therapy to work on issues not related to mental health. When someone with bipolar goes to therapy stabilization is the only goal. If you ever look at the termination process. You get cut off after stabilization.
