I know I should have, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Why should you have? There is no rule saying that you have to tell current T anything. There is nothing wrong with doing what's best for you. Who are you harming? This is therapy, this is not a friendship. The aim is to be supported for sure but also to work towards a therapeutic aim - which current T *cannot* deliver.

It's like how can I think about leaving that?!

Because the emotional connection, sporadic as it is, is not helping you with what you initially started therapy for.

I know I should probably text current T and at least tell her I am consulting with someone else but I can't seem to do that, either. Yup. I'm a big chicken.

Ouch. The way you treat yourself is really harsh. What is wrong with taking the steps you need to get a professional who can help with those specific issues you have? Who are you harming in being sure where you land before severing any ties? I hear the loyalty to current T but it should not be at the detriment to your mental health.
