I wasn't talking about therapy. I don't get the impression from OP that they are addicted to therapy, it sounds like they just need an occasional brief contact between sessions because of their own relational trauma. This often happens in other relationships too, not only in therapy. There is nothing pathological in needing more human contact when you have not received enough of it in your life. For those who don't have a history of this particular trauma, this need may seem excessive, but for a person with this kind of traumatic history it is normal.
