I've been going to mental health since september of 2012. They have a policy of only allowing six-eight months because they don't want to create a dependancy. Which of course, I can understand. But I just realized that I don't have too much farther to go. I am worried in part that when it ends, it's going to look like I'm refusing treatment. I'm trying to get disability and I'm just afraid that they're going to asume that I am better or not being compliant. But, the sessions also gives me something to look forward to and gets me out of the house. What am I going to do with myself when it's done?

I recently found out the sessions with my current therapist are limited, she said it may be possible to extend them but I am not getting my hopes up. Its frusterating to me because it seems once I am comfortable enough with her to really open up it will be over and I'll have to start over with someone else and then the cycle will continue.

You could probably see someone else after that to, but of course having to switch therapists after every few sessions doesn't seem very helpful. I am trying to get on SSI so I can understand being concerned about how therapy ending might effect the decision about disability.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
