Candika, you just made me think of something to add to my
"I know I'm ready to End Therapy When:" list.
I know I'm ready to end therapy when: I can have a helpful, productive conversations with my T about "us" and not feel totally uncomfortable.
This I think would be a true measure of good mental health (seriously).
However, I think I need to tackle some of my the earlier goals first ...I'm still working on having the guts to remove myself from the remote corner of the couch nearest the door.

EJ I think that figuring out how to effectively communicate and asking for support, even when we don't really know what we really want, is part of... therapy. At least it seems to be a big part of mine.
