yes! i definitly relate.

although, the difference for me was that when i knew i needed to get out of the deep enmeshment that i was quite entangled in, i dedicated the last year of my therapy to untangle myself from the attachment with my ex-T (this was a personal goal that i made with hubbys support and T was not aware of it). i'm not sure if i would have been able to fully do it if i was not for doing nuerofeedback at the same time (which immensely helped to decrease the strong transference dynamics that kept playing out in therapy prior to doing the NFB) and without the support of my husband (who attended T sessions with me).

i 'grew up' a lot that last year of therapy and then one day, it felt as if i had literally out grown my therapist...i no longer felt that he had anything further to offer me. i finally felt in control and empowered and it was time for me to fly from the 'nest'. i was able to leave on my terms, so there was definilty less heartache.

although i left on good terms, i have had moments of feeling angered, hurt, saddened, shamed, and betrayed for becoming overly enmeshed and exposing many of my vulnerabilities for all those years to someone who was clearly not an equal in this relationship. since leaving, i have spent a lot of time processing trying to understand all that played out in my therapy and with my ex-T and can clearly see now that many of ex-Ts owns issues (attachment style, counter transference, narcissistic tendencies, etc) mixed with all my ***** probably contributed to the a lot of the drama i experienced.
i have no desire to experince that kind of dynamic ever again, and because of what played out in therapy for me, i have no desire, nor do i feel the need, to seek the services of another T.
