I am so sad. I am moving across the country in a month so T and I are being forced into early termination. This is a very sad and terrible thing that I'm not ready to take it on because I'm not done with therapy and I've never been so attached to someone before. I found out last week that because of my job I would have to stay an extra week and adjust a few sessions coming up. I was considering asking T if we could extend my termination for another week but she beat me to the punch when she told me, "I didn't know you were going to be staying an extra week or I would have scheduled my vacation for a week later." That totally hit me like a ton of bricks. She scheduled her vacation around MY termination. That's probably the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. I am so overwhelmed that therapy is ending. Today T wanted to talk about how I was feeling about it but I totally shut her down, I was too scared and sad and didn't want a melt down. I was hiding my emotions by being a brat and asked why we needed to talk about it and she said, "Well it can be very hard, we've really gotten to know each other, and this is hard for me, so I wanted to make sure you get a chance to talk about it." She really cares. I've spent the rest of the day fighting tears. I'm going to miss her so much. It's like losing a parent.

That sounds really really hard. I'm sorry. Can she help you transition to seeing someone new?

I know what you mean. I'm so sorry you are having a hard time. I also agree with notme9 that you might want to start looking for a new T before you move. That is what I'm trying to do (sort-of). It seems like it can take so long that it would be easier to at least get some names before hand. Good luck with termination.
