He and I both have a one week break anyway, so maybe turning that into a one month break might be helpful in a way. I’m not exactly sure if this makes sense.

You could try, for me when he did a 2 week break, it was helpful in a sense, it really helped me focus more and I was able to feel more secure with us BUT I also felt like the connection died... and it took a few sessions for it to get back.

Oh so true. This is why my T does not like me going on here, and he's right, it IS bad for me, and plays with my anxiety more but it's a hard habit to break, I keep getting sucked in. It really sucks how often this happens in therapy though because you are made to believe you can say anything and you get to trust these people...
