I also did something similar when I was younger. Twenty-one years ago I had a $600 Japanese coach, because that was the same one a former therapist had twenty years ago. But, I wised up and wanted to spend my money differently. I was no longer a fashion Queen, it was back to Lands End, LLBean, and Eddie Bauer style. Interesting enough, the therapist that I credit with helping me out of my quagmire had the same style. Their things last forever, so we rarely by new clothes.

I'm sorry this is happening to you. Attachment is not a bad thing if you are wanting to change your attachment style, but it is important to have a therapist that has done their own work and can be there for you. It made my therapist angry and sad (~5 years ago), when I would tell her about people on this forum being terminated and referred to other programs, especially DBT. "When the the therapist hasn't anything left in their toolbox, they tranfer them out, and that they might be willing to take them back in two years, makes me sad and angry. They haven't done their own work. But, I can just do what I do and what I can for my clients."

Try to make sure the therapist and program you choose are solid. Good luck to you.
