I don't happen to see it in such extreme terms as survival or ER, though. I would just ask the therapist what they mean by need.

Yes, I agree. We are all able to survive without it. Perhaps implying it was based on knowing I would survive without it was the wrong way to phrase it in the OP. Physically we will all, of course, survive without it. Maybe it's more that for many the feelings might be so intense that they 'feel' like they won't survive...of course they 'know' that they will but may 'feel' like they won't. As most of us know here feeling something and knowing don't always match up ...Not sure if I am making any sense here.
Good point about getting clarification of what he means by 'need' might do that.
