I am so numb in my stomach area which is where my abandonment fears live, that I have lost weight from not eating. I didn't eat lunch today because I forgot. I worry that T has finally grown sick of me and is going to terminate me. I see him this week. I have been terminated previously and that is playing on my mind. My exT told me he would never leave, but definitely did. Should I be worried?

I'm sorry for being so dense, but wouldn't it be more worrying if he said your therapeutic relationship wasn't fine? I'm not sure I understand, so I apologize. Is it because he described the relationship as therapeutic? Because I don't think he could call it anything else (if he did, then that would be a problem). Anyway, I think none of what he says sounds like he's leaving. It sounds a lot more like he's feeling good about things.
