I just wonder if maybe this latest suspicion of yours is part of a recurring pattern that has more to do with your mental processes than with him.
And not saying he wasn't wrong about the whole forgetting to tell you he was going on vacation. That's terrible.

He did. This Monday the minute I sat down he said its time to think about cutting sessions down. I do not want to be where I am not wanted. I over stayed my welcome apparently. They get you so damn attached and so dependent on them. I listened to everyone and told him how attached I was and dependent a couple of months ago. Well he listened, he did a 360 and now he is fixing it at my emotional expense.
I go to therapy to help with the hopeless feeling, the depression the worthlessness. I am thrown right back into the pit.

Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
