I really get the feeling that my T does not like me. She almost always starts our sessions a little late (maybe at five after or so, instead of right on the hour) and ends either exactly on time, or right before. The "50" minute sessions usually end up closer to 40 minute ones.

This wouldn't bother me as much if I felt like the 40 minutes were well-spent, but often I feel like she's uninterested and just going through a checklist of things. How's the eating? How's the anxiety? How's the SI? Just a big list and never really beyond the surface.

I don't feel like I can talk to her about most things and although she's super nice, she just doesn't get it. I have a nutritionist that is amazing and makes a lot of psychological connections. She understands me better than anybody else in the world, but I think often she is afraid of crossing a boundary between therapist and nutritionist. Every night when I try to fall asleep I think of how much I want my nutritionist to be my therapist. She is the one that "gets" me, that helps me, that supports and believes in me. She's the only reason that I'm still here today (feel guilty that I might disappoint her if I ended it all).

I guess I'm getting sidetracked, but I was wondering if you guys could tell me some of your experience with termination? I've been seeing T for about six months, but I still don't feel comfortable. I want to switch, but I'm afraid. I don't want to admit I made a mistake and that I wasted her time. I am so scared. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks
