I'm sorry his reply confused you even further. This is why I couldn't leave myself open to last T. I knew it was in my best interest to terminate and we had been struggling anyway. One last session wouldn't bring me closure, because I was already highly dubious and skeptical of her. Once the trust is gone for me, there is absolutely no point. I go by energy and vibes, so I'd prob sit there not believing what she said. I ran the risk of going to one last termination session and not being able to follow through with it and the only reason I would have stayed in therapy with her would have been to avoid the pain of letting go.

That's just my situation and obviously yours has different nuances to it. I'm just adding what happened in my case.

His reply seems standard, nothing out of the ordinary, at least from what I've experienced over going to therapy on and off for over a decade, lol.

And now I'm confused because I just woke up from a nap...isn't he retiring?
