DO NOT quit. It is definitely not a solution to your problem and you will end up feeling bad. Try to push yourself to go. I find writing lists of pros and cons helps to convince yourself that it is the right thing to do and if you feel that two sessions are too much maybe talk to your therapist and discuss the possibility of having one instead two sessions. Please know that you are not wasting his time. It is his job to help and guide you through this and you are there for a reason which is for you to feel better and that is important enough

Thank you for providing the best and nicest reply so far. I am glad someone gets what I was trying to say in my post.

I will go Tues I guess and just see how I feel about Friday. I think he is allowing it because my only other source of support right now is out of the country for 3 weeks. He has been very kind to me but yes I know, I am "just another client" however my insurance pays for it, not me LOL

At any rate, thank you again. I will do my best to push through because I've had these phobias since childhood and that is one thing I REALLY wanna overcome.

Also he wont care if I only go 1 instead of 2, he was just offering it this week to me.. the second one... because apparently its his job, not to be nice.
