I nearly had a meltdown when he was on a weekend trip in another state, didn't even effect my sessions but I was terrified he would die or just never come back. I was sick all weekend, it was awful, so I completely get it

I also wont see any other T so I get that

I've been honest about googling my T but he has also told me I could. I guess, you could always just say "I'm worried about you leaving me, is there any trips or any big reasons you would need to be away in the next few months?" I literally ask this every month or so.

Good luck. It's awful
I'm sorry this is so tough for you! I wish this weren't so awkward for me to bring up...I mean if a psychologist can't deal with it then nobody can, right? How did your therapist react to the first time you revealed you are attached?
