Yeah, he sort of said as much. That he was grateful to me for telling him as it was a bit of a heads-up for him re other clients, too.

It did feel really brave and I was so proud of myself: I had talked it through with T2 first (I have one for the psychodynamic stuff and one to help me actually stay in therapy without freaking out, and also as another set of eyes: after bad XT I feel very vulnerable that no-one is seeing what happens behind closed doors).
It was fantastic to do it so deliberately and mindfully and carefully - rather than. just walking in there with my feelings in a chaotic mess, anxiety sky bight and not knowing where or how to start.
