I am trapped in therapy and I can’t get out. My T is very good but I just don’t think I am benefiting any more, and I feel like I am getting worse with him.

He doesn’t allow me to text him in between sessions and my therapy is very intense. I feel like holding the negative feelings and having to wait till the next session is getting in the way of my progress. I know that some therapists allow their patients to text them.

I am too attached to leave but there is also a part of me that believes that sometimes we need to let go of what’s comfortable for our own growth.

I’ve seen success stories of some people on this forum leaving their therapists.

How did you guys have the strength to do it?
