How does one decide if their mental health will be benefited more by a previous relationship that *really* worked for me, versus me being broke?

Have you looked at your budget to see if there is ANYTHING you can cut out? When I decided to start seeing T, I thought there would literally be no way I could afford it when my insurance ran out. But it became way more important to me than I expected, and I've pinched a lot of pennies so I can keep going. I do always have this little fear floating around that the money will run out, but so far, so good....

What about going every other week? If this is the person you really like, would that be a possibility??

My T specializes in trauma, but when I went to him, I didn't even think I was going to talk about trauma - just about day to day things like anxiety, etc. (boy, was I in for a surprise!). As I realized over time it was important to talk about, it turned out I had chosen the right person. So, if you decide to see someone new who specializes in abuse/trauma, I really think you can wait as long as you need to before you talk about it.

Good luck - let us know what happens.
