How are you doing since you posted?

I agree, too. Therapy itself is great because it's 110% about you, your life, your concerns, etc. That is your time and the entire focus is on you. It's nearly impossible to get that IRL and it is a path to explore ourselves with guidance of a therapist.

That said it sounds like you need a different therapist.

I think getting to the root of your need for so much attention and coping/self-soothing skills from therapy will help you.

I think learning to spend time alone can be rewarding and healthy.

Take care
